Mrs. Gruzen's and Mrs. Husick's classes participated in the Monster Project this year (2013-14). The project helps the students to develop their reading and writing skills while integrating technology into the classroom. Each class is paired up with another participating class somewhere in the world. Students draw their own monsters, our students drew their monsters on the iPad using Pixie. The students then have to write a description of their monsters with as much detail as possible. The students from the partner class then try to draw the monsters using these descriptions. In the end everyone gets to see what the original monster looked like and students get to see what monsters their partners drew using the descriptions.
