To recognize November as Native American Heritage Month, my 6th grade students created horse masks. Horse masks were sometimes worn by the horses in various tribes of plains Indians and some other areas too. Horse masks would often be colorful and they could also display a sign of strength. Students created theirs by using construction paper, oil pastels, yarn and scissors. Many of my students have horses and our mascot is a Colt so this was a fun art project for them.
