Portrait in Masks
In the second trimester, the entire eighth grade read and discussed This Book is Anti-Racist. The book inspired the Identity Mask and Portrait projects, in which students explored what it means to be an anti-racist. For the first part of the assignment, students drew symbols on a mask template to represent who they are. In the second part of the assignment, students learned how to proportionally build and accurately draw a self-portrait. Students used their understanding of value to complete their portrait and combined it with their mask.
