Hello! Our
school includes several levels from kindergarten to high school. It
has a lot of clubs such as judo, art, dancing, singing, fashion, drama
and other clubs. Students are friendly and caring, curious and
creative. High school level students help teachers arrange
competitions, contests, projects and other events. We are grade
3 and would like to participate in Monster Project to find
new friends and make an amazing monster collaboratively. English is
not our mother tongue but we are not afraid of difficulties. Our
English teacher Lusine Jhangiryan and high
school students will support us and help us to deal with
difficulties. If our
Monster could make the world a better place to live in, he would use
STEM and: -Design new
green parks with ponds and merry-go-round for kids. Lusine Jhangiryan -- Email: jhangiryan75@list.ru -- skype lusinej3 - GOOGLE MAP VIEW - School |

Hi! I'd like to tell
about myself and my grade 5 pupils.
We are from Secondary school
#2 Nizhniy Ingash, Krasnoyarsk Territory, Russia.
My name is Dasha Kireyeva.
I am a teacher of Russian and English at school. I like my job very
much. Since my childhood I dreamt to teach children. I like to learn.
I have been studying all my life. I've worked as: an engineer,
philologist, nurse. I am working at the secondary school. Our school is small. It has 450 students. My pupils are very smart and curious. They like to play educational games and to be creative. All of my pupils are noisy and restless, so it's very hard to be quiet in class. I'm sure this project they really like, and we get a huge enjoyment out of. A few words about myself. Im thirty. I was born in Lesosibirsk, but I do not presently live there. I live in Nigniy Ingash. In 2011 I was graduated Krasnoyarsk pedagogical university on the profession "teacher of Russian and literature". I am a filologist. |

Lisa
Diessel's' 2nd grade: We live in a town of over 28,000 that includes not only an urban
centre, but many farms. We grow lots of corn. We are on the north end
of the Holland Marsh, Ontario's heartland for carrots, onions, celery,
and other vegetables. We have a CarrotFest every summer. Our
population was primarily made up of Portuguese, Italians, Scottish and
Dutch, but more recently many different nationalities are moving in
and making our population more diverse. Our class has 19 students, and our school population is just over
200. We have children from junior kindergarten
(3-4 years old) up to
Grade 8 (13-14 years old). Our school sits in the middle of a large,
grassy field, and includes some concrete pavement and two playgrounds
with climbing equipment. Our school is in the middle of a residential
area of single, brick houses. Our yard doesn't have many trees, but
the streets are tree-lined. Many years ago, this whole area was
forest. We like to play Lego, Jenga, video
games, Pokemon cards, dolls, and Ninja Turtles. We like to play with
our pets. Some of us have pet dogs, and two of us have pet cats. We
love sports and play: soccer, basketball, baseball, hockey, golf,
skating, bowling, hide-and-seek, tag, swimming, and dance. If
our monster used STEAM, he would make our world a better place to
live by making people less reliant on electricity and gas. He would
design buildings that don't let the extreme cold or the hot sun in. He
would design a car that could run on solar energy, and change its size
to fit the number of passengers it needs to carry. He would use
technology to write comic strips that teach people how to save energy
and keep the world clean. St. Jean de

Hello !
Our 6th grade class at
Challis elementary would like to participate in the Global Monster
Project. We are a very rural town, 150
miles from any large town. Our population is about 900 people.
Most folks work as ranchers, outfitters, or work for the Forest
Service or BLM. For fun, we like to fish,
hunt, hike, go whitewater rafting and participate in many sports.
We are about 50 miles from the largest wilderness areas in the lower
48 states. We
decided that our monster will be able to help the community by
reminding the patrons of our small school library to return their
books/DVDs and CDs on time so that they will be available for others. We are
thinking of trying to find a way to incorporate STEM ideas into our
library monster in the following ways (these are just brainstormed
ideas at present):

Longitude of our school in Joliet, IL: 41.5N, 84.14W If our Monster
used Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) he or she
would make our town (or world) a better place to live by creating
a system to make sure we all have clean drinking water. After
what Flint,
Michigan experienced with
their contamination issues, we feel this could happen anywhere and
we need to be better prepared to make sure the drinking water is
healthy. Our Monster could help create better ways to make
materials that dont have harmful products in them. He or
she could use advanced technology to help break up hurricanes,
tornadoes, or other natural disasters before they become dangerous
and harm people. Website: www.csrn.org

Teachers: Miss Mojica and Ms. Kut Latitude: 41.810389 We are incorporating STEM into this project this
year by using math for measurement, and shapes (geometry) which
is part of our CC standards in second grade. We are
incorporating Engineering
by learning about how to model a project and sketch it out before
building takes place. Technology will
be used because we are going to make our monster glow in the dark
since it will be placed in the school's annual haunted house. Last
we will incorporate Science by
learning about light and electricity to make our monster glow. |

We want STEM education to create students who are, innovators, problem solvers, inventors. Students who are on their way to becoming self-reliant, and logical thinkers.
We would like our monster to help to get rid to pollution that is damaging our countrys land. We also hope our monster will be able to
build factories that will provide jobs for all the families in our community that need the work to support their families. |

Teacher: Ms. Gallicos
class - Grade: 5th grade
- Lemont, Illinois, United States of America We are a fun class that likes to have fun
and joke around. We are a diverse class because we come from many
different cultures. We are smart because we get good grades and
try hard. Our class is random because we come up with random
things. We are creative because we make a lot of projects. Our
class likes to raise our hands when we need help or have a
question. Our class is mighty fine because we help each other out
and work together. We are competitive with our groups on a good
way. We are energetic because we are crazy. We like to work
together in our groups. If our monster used science,
technology, engineering and math (STEM) he or she would make our town (or world) a better place to
live by He would eat all of the garbage in the
world so there would be no landfills and pollution. After he eats
the garbage, it would be recycled and create a new product for
people to use. We could teach him to be kind and helpful to other
monsters. Our monster would use science and technology to make
sure everyone had a place to live. He can help the U.S. army
protect our country. He could help plant crops and create a source
of food for everyone to eat so no one will be hungry. He could use
science and technology to help scientists develop new medicines to
help people be healthy. Website: http://lbcsd.innersync.com/sites/rgallico/

excited about the monster project - http://goo.gl/wudOFw If our monster used Science, Technology,
Engineering, and Math he would make our world a better place to live
in by helping to create clean water for people to drink.
Our monster has the ability to suck dirty water into his mouth,
the garbage gets sorted out and clean/filtered water will come out one
of his arms. The extra
garbage goes through the incinerator so he does not create more waste.

Hello! We are the students
of Room 8 at the Miriam School.
Our school is unique because it is an Occupational Therapy (O.T.)
oriented space, that uses Project Based Learning
(PBL) and is a mixed grade environment.
The students of Miriam School have lots of interests, and we
are smart and creative. Our
class is small, only 10 students and a total 88 in the whole
school. Some other things we get to do at school include gardening and
cooking.
Some people may call our home town
of St. Louis, Missouri, the Gateway to
the West. It got that name because it was one of the first
successful cities along the Mississippi during the 19th century.
During this time people were exploring the west and its unsettled
land. St. Louis was the
last stop before their adventures.
The latitude of St. Louis is 90 degrees West and the Longitude
is 38 degrees North. Average temperature gets as high as 90 degrees
Fahrenheit which is 32 degrees in Celsius.
The average low is 24 degrees Fahrenheit which is -4 in
Celsius. The highest
temperature was 108 degrees Fahrenheit in 2014 and the lowest
temperature was -19 degrees Fahrenheit. If
our monster were to use STEM to make the World a better place it
would . . . We want our monster to build
a system for an efficient energy source.
For example maybe our monster would be able to build a fusion
reactor instead of fission reactor.
We also would want it to; stop wars by
signing peace treaties, build homes for those who do not have homes,
giving clothes to homeless people, and
finally pick up garbage to help the
environment. Mrs. Wand, www.miriamstl.org

Dear Monster Makers, Greetings from Hannibal, MO USA! I'm Michelle Huseman and I teach fourth grade at Eugene Field Elementary in the heart of Mark Twain country! My class of 18 is excited to begin the monster making process. We begin just like an architect would, with a blue print of the "part" they have chosen, drawing it out to get a feel for what it should look like. Then we put together a shopping list of items needed to make the build happen. Next comes the build itself. I try to take two entire class days to put everything together. I think this helps the kids see the project come together in a more organized manner, rather than taking several parts of several days. To me this is more of an organized chaos! Please contact me at mhuseman@district.hannibal.k12.mo.us or mhuseman@hannibal60.com if you have questions.
Happy Monster Making! |

We have 24 students in our class.
Our school has over 400 students. We are really
excited to participate in this project and getting
to know more about our other monster makers! If our monster used STEM in our
community it would cure diseases that affect many people around
the world. Our monster could also create a device that could help clean
the environment and conserve natural resources. Our monster
will also work together with members of the community to help people
get along with each other. We envision our monster being like a transformer
that can change into whatever is needed at the moment: fire truck,
ambulance, home, hospital or a friend. Our Class Website Our

there are usually only
four or five times when the daytime temperatures don't go above
freezing, 32 F. -- latitude and

Pioneer Elementary School in Quincy, WA, USA. Our teacher is
Mrs. Jones. Our first
through third grade Daily STEAMAM class would like
to join the Monster Project again this year! We like science,
technology, engineering, art and math! We have fun and learn in
STEAM. We ask
lots of questions. We never say I can't and we never give up!
Instead, we ask for help and we make plans with our group and use teamwork
to help each other. Our
Monster would use STEAM to help
our town by:
Latitude: 47.2343 N
- Longitude: 119.8526
W High temperature: July and August
average 86.5 degrees Fahrenheit We're so excited
to build our monster again this year! The Pioneer Panther Kids |
