Black History Month Bulletin Boards

Lois Mailou Jones
This lesson plan is from Kathy Barbro at http://www.artprojectsforkids.org/
These masks were done by my 4th graders.


 The kente cloth I came up with last year.  I take a piece of  9x12 construction paper and fold it twice vertically to create three columns.  The students look at kente cloth pictures and imitate the patterns to create their own.  The African dancers are also from Kathy Barbro.
