Monster Hunters In The Classroom

       Lets get monster hunting!!! Well of course not real monsters, but imaginative ones. In third grade our classroom got a book, I forget what it's called, but it was by somebody who pretended to be a monster hunter. He wrote different information files, each a different monster. The book was always checked out of the library, but I did get it some time around. Everyone got so excited when he came for an author visit. He read us some of the book and showed us his "monster hunting gear". He wore a strange outfit, a strange hat, he had a net, and a magnifying glass. He said that he wore his outfit everywhere.
       One day our teacher gave us a writing assignment to do, we got to write whatever we wanted. Me and my friend Sarah decided to work together and make a book like the one that the man wrote. We made up about 15 monsters, and then wrote a book about them! Kind of like a myth, it was about 23 pages long. I did most of the work. I had a lot of fun writing about monsters, and I would like to pursue it. On my blog I am going to create different monster files from time to time, I know if I say i'm going to do it weekly or daily, I will probably just forget about it, so i"m not making any promises!
