Objective of Collaboration We're seeking a partner class to help us learn about adjectives with 3 separate activities:

1. Partner classes will exchange a list of adjectives. Each class will build a monster embodying at least 5 adjectives from the list, using available classroom materials.

2. Both classes will read a book about monsters (example- Jitterbug Jam: A Monster Tale, Monsters Don't Eat Broccoli). Each student will write a Response to Literature.

3. On video conference day, each class will reveal their monsters while the partner class guesses which adjectives were chosen, based on appearance. Select students will share their response to literature piece with their partner classmates.
