The group will then pool and integrate ideas into a final draft. This model will be a prototype for a sculpture of a life-sized mummy case. Contruct the mummy case of cardboard. Teacher assistance may be required to measure and cut. Transparent packing tape is used to adhere pieces together.
Students begin to draw on the mummy case using their group sketch.
If they haven't done so already, students will need to design the back and sides of their mummy case as well. Seeing the mummy case in three dimensions brings home the point that their work is a sculpture that will be viewed from all sides. A smaller box can be taped onto the mummy box using packing tape on the inside of the box. The face mask can later be fastened on the front of the smaller box. Wait at least one day for face and hands to harden.
