Share & grow the world's knowledge!
We want to connect the people who have knowledge to the people who need it, to bring together people with different perspectives so they can understand each other better, and to empower everyone to share their knowledge.
You will have noticed that 36 is both a triangular number and a square number! That is, 36 dots can be arranged perfectly both in a triangle and in a square. Make pictures in your notebook illustrating this! This shows that the same number can be represented differently, and play different roles, depending on the context. Try representing some other numbers pictorially in different ways!

After the paper layers on the balloon have dried completely, the next step is to carefully burst the balloon. Once the balloon is removed, the hardened paper shell remains, forming the basic mask structure. Students should then define the final shape by cutting it carefully with scissors, shaping areas like the eyes, nose or mouth as desired. This preparation stage is essential before moving on to decorating the mask with paints, colors and other creative materials.

Creating a paper mask is a patient process that typically takes about three days. After applying the first few wet paper layers onto the balloon, each layer must dry completely before adding more. This gradual process prevents mold and ensures strength. The final drying phase, especially after adding a glue layer, is crucial. Once fully dry, the balloon can be burst and the mask can be shaped and decorated. This careful timing leads to a strong, durable mask.

When creating a paper mask, it is important to apply five to six layers of paper on the balloon. Each layer strengthens the structure, making the mask firm and durable.

When creating a paper mask, it is important to apply five to six layers of paper on the balloon. Each layer strengthens the structure, making the mask firm and durable. Initially, wet paper strips are applied carefully and after a few layers, glue is used in the final one for added stability. Proper layering ensures that the mask maintains its shape after drying, allowing it to be easily cut, shaped and decorated without tearing or breaking.
See lessWhy must layers of paper overlap on the edges of the balloon?
Overlapping the paper layers on the balloon’s edges is necessary to build a strong, stable mask. Without overlapping, gaps could form between strips, making the mask fragile and likely to tear. Overlapping creates multiple interconnected layers that reinforce each other, ensuring that the mask maintRead more
Overlapping the paper layers on the balloon’s edges is necessary to build a strong, stable mask. Without overlapping, gaps could form between strips, making the mask fragile and likely to tear. Overlapping creates multiple interconnected layers that reinforce each other, ensuring that the mask maintains its intended shape. This method not only strengthens the structure but also provides a smoother surface for painting and decorating once the mask dries, making the final product more professional and long-lasting.
