As we studied the Shar Tribe of South America we learned that the people there would capture their enemy and then shrink their heads to show their enemy that they were victorious at defeating them.
Assignment: You will be making your own Shrunken Head
You must name your shrunken head and be ready to discuss how you captured him or her. It takes approximately 2 weeks for the apples to dry so I would Advise that you begin the process this Saturday and Sunday and place the apple in a safe place to dry such as a windowsill. DO NOT WAIT LAST MINUTE TO DO IT since THE APPLES WILL NOT PROPERLY DRY!!! Any wet apples or undecorated apples will lose points!!! Also try to use a string or fishing line to hang the apple.
Dont forget that you can put piercings in the nose, ears etc of your head. Make-up is allow and so is Hair and bows in their hair...Be Creative!!!...
THIS PROJECT IS DUE ON HALLOWEEN WEDNESDAY OCTOBER 31. Starting 2 WEEKS from tomorrow I will be checking on you guys to see how the apple is going. Please take pictures of the process with your phones if possible!
