Mi Monstruo

This project is all about creating your own monster! This project is meant to be creative, while utilizing the vocabulary that we have learned so far this year. The more creative you are the more fun you can truly have with this! The first part of the project will be writing about your monster, the second part of the project will include a performance based presentation in front of the class. After you are done writing about your monster, draw a picture that represents your monster to share with the class for your presentation. (We want to SEE what it looks like!)
