boys vs. girls (and ink monsters)

by 3rd grade girls

today i tried out a fun little activity with my 3rd graders based on Stefen Bucher's Daily Monster.  He makes ink monsters by blowing india ink with a straw and turning the blot into a monster with sharpies.  After sharing a few of his videos, i turned the kiddos loose.  (well not really! i was actually quite bossy.)  The kids LOVED this.  But i would have to say, the boys did so much more!

i mean look how much more detailed they are!  And they're so dark and deranged!  It's hilarious compared to the girls' monsters with their eyelashes and smiles.  Oh, the minds & imaginations of 10 year olds!
