Project overview
The Monster Match program is a fun collaborative project that enhances creativity, teamwork, reading, and writing. Teachers are paired with a classroom of a similar grade level and a common presentation date/time.
This is planned for students and classrooms covering Grades 3 and Grades 4.
Students are placed into groups and asked to collaboratively draw a monster. Once completed the students are asked to write instructions on how to draw their monster. Instructions are exchanged between classrooms for the students to follow and create. Once completed the classroom will connect via Meet, Teams, or Zoom to read their instruction then groups compare their drawings. Video conferences run between 30-45mins.
This project is open to ALL Ohio Schools. Please share with your schools.
