In this activity students will:
- Look at characters in the Megillah who "dress up" and try to figure out why they are wearing the specific clothes and how they might feel about it.
- Think about how they feel about dressing up or wearing masks - especially during this year when they have been wearing masks every day.
- Draw pictures of themselves wearing masks while also showing who they are underneath.
For a version of the lesson written for students in high school and up, see Masks that Conceal; Masks that Reveal - A Text Study and Mask-Making Activity.
