DESCRIPTION:
Monster Match is a DESCRIPTIVE WRITING EXCHANGE involving both LANGUAGE ARTS and MATHEMATICS curricular links. Students will use this collaborative opportunity to practice writing and following directions.
BEFORE THE VC:
1. Create the Monster
Students will be asked to write a very detailed description of a monster (using words, colours and measurements). Their monster can be two-dimensional - drawn and coloured on a large piece of paper, or three-dimensional - using cardboard boxes and other materials easy to find in a classroom. They will then be asked to create this monster to show what the end result SHOULD look like.
2. Exchange Descriptions
Teachers are now asked to send the students' monster descriptions to their partner classes. When you receive the description of your partner students' monsters, your class must work to assemble or draw an accurate monster that matches the description you have received.
VC AGENDA:
5 minutes Introductions
20 minutes Revealing Answers
10 minutes Identify Similarities and Differences
5 minutes Questions and Answers
