Ideas for Later
Visit an art gallery and take a look at the faces in different paintings. Look for the different parts of the face. Does the person look old or young? Has the artist used lots of different colours or just a few or maybe just black?
In Greek matia is the word for eyes and aftia the word for ears. Ask someone you know if they know another word for eyes or ears or if they can sing a song in a different language to the one you normally use.
