Lesson: Funerary and Ritual Masks
3rd Grade
Theme Concept
Death plays a significant role to the circle of life. Death paves way for improvements and changes by removing the old from the Earth to let the young grow and for the new to come. However, the feelings one gets from a birth can be the opposite of those from a death. In some cultures, it is sad to see one physically part from Earth. Whereas, other cultures, such as the Ancient Egyptians, sought for the afterlife. Being open and knowledgeable to the various traditions that exist when it comes to the topic of death is crucial to understanding different cultures and customs.
Non-Art Discipline Concept
The use of description is important in life because it provides details and more information. The topic for a description can be about anything. Specifically with objects, a description helps viewers understand why the object was made, its purpose, and what is going to be done with the object. For example, does the object belong in a particular building? Will it be donated for some reason? By providing more details, viewers will be able to understand more about the object and its significance in the world.
