The Problem

You are competing in a costume contest where the costumes must be homemade. The entries will be judged on concept, originality, and design. What costume will you enter into the contest and how will it be created?

How do you create a great costume?

Students will review the criteria in which their costume will be judged, as well as tips for creating costumes and several example costumes. They will then decide on their own costume design.
