The Monster Project: Student-Led Conferences Comments

This is a picture of the completed monster that our class worked on for the Monster Project.  Our class decided that our monster's name was Scaredy Cat.  Each student was part of a group that worked on the different parts of the monster.  Please have your child tell you something about one of the parts that they worked on. - Miss Matsumoto

In the morning yesterday, our class carved four pumpkins in our table groups.  Each table group had one pumpkin to carve.  They decided as a group what their pumpkin would look like.  When we finished carving the pumpkins, each table group counted the seeds.  We used special paper to help us count the seeds by 10.  The pumpkin with the most seeds had 544 seeds!!  In the afternoon it was our school's costume parade.  We walked through every classroom and were able to see everyone's costume.  After that, we had had a classroom party with lots of treats.  It was a great day!!
