Monster Project

The year four children in room 10 and the 3rd graders in Ms. Bright's after school magnet computer class in Fremont Elementary School, Bakersfield, California, illustrated monsters and wrote descriptions of the monsters. We then exchanged descriptions by e-mail and illustrated each others monsters. Read about our monster and draw a picture of what you think it would look like. You can click on the monster in the window at the beginning of each description to see our drawings.
 
"Students try to communicate an original monster image into another child's mind using learned writing skills and technology."

The monster descriptions and pictures are in 4 groups. Click on a group to go there.
