African Masquerade – Clay Masks

Download this 19-slide PowerPoint to show children how to make their own African masquerade masks. This is a great PowerPoint that carefully structures the creation of an African mask for the celebrations. It is a PowerPoint that will inspire KS1 & KS2 children as the African Masquerade costumes are worn for important ceremonies and other special occasions. Like most masks created in Africa, these represent the presence of a spirit or god and children will learn that when a person wears the costume, they take on the spirit that the costume represents.
