African Mask Project is an Arts Enhanced STEAM lesson, with possible Arts Integrated lesson options, that brings together Math, Modeling/Visualization, and Visual Art using Social Studies as the prompt to promote visual arts research.
After completing the geometry module in math class, students then research African masks and design them on graph paper. Once the design is complete, they have an overview in Tinkercad and examples of careers where design capacity in 3D design tools is needed. Then they are given time to create their masks in Tinkercad. Once reviewed and approved, they are printed and optionally painted and shown to the students.
