Monster Draw/Pumpkin Draw!

 This Halloween-time game is always a favorite of my returning students!  Here's how you play:

Step 1:Each student draws a monster. (My younger students draw pumpkins, with or without a face). They should include a background and many different colors to practice using adjectives in their writing.

Step 2: The students write a detailed desription on their monster/pumpkin.  Adjectives are crucial, for every single noun!  Size, shape, color, number.

Step 3: Students exchange written work and attempt to draw each other's monster/pumpkin with no talking or asking for clarification!

Winners are voted on by the class.  Congratulations to our winners below!

Momo's Monster (6th grade)

        My monster is basically a tomato trying to become a human. But first, I need to get some things straight. When I say to the left, I mean to YOUR LEFT. OK, hold up your left hand. That is YOUR left. Got it? So if I say place the arm on the left, I mean put the arm on your left side of the paper. OK, I should start. (By the way, I am using Mrs. Huff's colored pencils.)

        First, let's draw the body. Take a red-orange pencil, and draw a circle the size of your palm in the middle. DO NOT COLOR IT YET.

        Next, let's draw the eye. My monster only has one eye. So first look at the top of the circle you just drew. Then move one centimeter down and with an orange pencil, draw a circle one centimeter from the body's top. (I know I already said that). The circle should be the size of a cherry tomato. DO NOT COLOR IT YET. Now we will do the pupil. Take an aqua green or teal colored pencil and in the center of the orange circle, draw a circle the size of a little smaller than one button on your polo. COLOR THE TEAL CIRCLE IN. Okay, NOW you can color in the orange circle around the small teal circle. Now we need eyelashes. Take a purple colored pencil and draw 1/2 cm lines from the teal circle (like eyelashes, but not too long). Draw five eyelashes.

        After that, move on to the mouth. The smile is big compared to the eyes. Take the red orange pencil and draw a half circle smile. DO NOT COLOR IT IN. Now take a blue colored pencil and draw teeth on the top of the mouth; draw five spikes, or teeth. The teeth are triangles on the bottom of the mouth, the curved part. Also draw five teeth of the same size. Now, color the teeth blue, and in the white space inside color that space pink or blush rose.

        Now, I will move on to the arms. On both sides, right and left, draw a circle on the outside with the color magenta, and the size of a little bigger than the teal pupil. Color it in! Now draw two of them on each side. Basically duplicate what you just drew. Color both circles on each side. You should have four circles total, and two on each side, connecting.

        Move to the legs. 3/4 of a centimeter, draw a line down with tan. The size of the teal pupil, draw a red circle. Draw this on the bottom of the red orange body, and color it. Draw another tan line and draw a purple circle the size of the pupil, Then, no line and draw a green triangle under the circle. Color the leg circles in. Color in the body. Draw a sun on the top right and three U shaped birds in the top left. Draw a brown ground underneath and a top hat the same size of the eye on top of the monster.

Momo cracked me up on her first paragraph; I can't believe in this timed game situation she had the time to write all of this! She gives very explicit and clear directions, and 6th grader Chuyu only missed ONE thing! Can you spot it? 

(Who needs a hat anyway?!)



Aubrey's Monster (6th grade)

        My monster is a sphere with eyes, mouth, nose, ears, and hands. The body and head are morphed together into a ball, almost touching the edge of the paper. A big gigantic eyeball is placed towards the top with tiny nostrils like Voldemort's in the middle. Its mouth is open halfway into a smile, but a big wagging tongue droops out to its stomach. It has tiny blue hands on either sides, the same color as its pupil. The mouth is orange-red. The edges are lined with whiskers in a beautiful cyan. The hair on top is flat, but sticks out in the middle. To either side of his haircut are two wolf-like ears, white on the outside and blue fur on the inside. Its skin is light blue, along with its long, flat, and stubby feet. This creature lives on Planet Cheese where there are yellow holes in the ground. The sky is light green with even greener stars.
Wow! Aubrey wrote so clearly that Jojo (6th grade) could produce this practical twin!



Sara's Monster (6th grade)
        (Note: Read the whole thing, then draw.)

        Shape: My monster is a medium-sized verticle cream-colored marshmallow that is placed directly in the center of the page.

        Eye: My monster has one eye that is medium-big, and about the size of a gumball. Inside of the eye there are two small circles. One is placed close to the top left of the eye. The other one, which is slightly smaller, is placed close to the bottom right of the eye. The eye is green, and the small circles are white.

        Mouth: My monster's mouth is shaped as an upwards curve and is the same width as the eye. It is just made from a pencil (but black works also.) My monster's mouth has five small upwards triangle shaped pencil-colored teeth connected to the bottom of the mouth.

        On top of my monster is a medium-shaped top hat that is directly in the middle of the top of the marshmallow. On the tall part of the top hat, written in the middle in pencil, is the word "Halloween" in small letters that are all lower case except for the H. On the short horizontal shaped part of the top hat, in the middle is a small cnady corn. The candy corn has three sections. The bottom one is yellow, then orange, then white. The rest of the top hat is purple.

        The cheeks on my monster are small, pink, and placed on either side of the face.

        My monster also has two medium arms that look like snowmans' on either side of the body. Each of the arms have three stick fingers and the arm is stick shaped and pencil-colored. Its legs are also sticks about the size of an inch and are pencil-colored. Connected to the bottom of the legs are small candy corns that have the same color pattern as the top hat candy corn. They are on both legs.

        The background has dark green grass under the feet and RIP tombstones on either side of the marshmallow. On your left side is a crescent yellow moon, and on the right side horizontally across is a light blue cloud. The tombstones are gray and the RIP letters are uppercased in pencil.
Sara is such a detailed writer! With his careful reading, Grayson (6th grade) could produce this practically perfect match!



Kaia's Monster (6th grade)
        First, in the middle of the page, draw a medium size basic pumpkin. There are five different vertical sections of the pumpkin. The pumpkin has triangle eyes that have tips pointed up, and are both two binder paper lines long and wide. The eyes are colored in black. Then it has an open mouth in the shape of a half circle that is two lines tall and six lines wide. The mouth is fully colored black. The pumpkin has two stub arms that are colored black and are one line wide and three lines long. The pumpkin has two stub legs that have curved feet. The legs are one line wide and three lines long. The legs are black, and dangle from the pumpkin's body.

        Under the pumpkin there is a light green hill that starts at one bottom corner and goes to the bottom of the pumpkin, and goes to the other bottom corner.

        In your left top corner, there is a gray moon with lots of craters. The moon is four lines long and four lines wide.

        Beside the moon in themiddle top of the paper, there are three curly gusts of wind. They are all five lines long.

        Around the corners of the wind there are four gold stars with five points that are two lines long and wide.

        On top of the pumpkin, Snoopy lies as if it was his dog house. He has one eye showing which is closed, and one black ear flopped down on the pumpkin.
Wow! Such a cute picture to try to copy! Aria (6th grade) did a super job with this!

Ryder's Monster (6th grade)
        My monster has a big circle head with a team beanie and blue party hat with a small Canadian flag on top. He has a yellow face with a small blue vertical rectangle for a nose and very small spiral eyes. He has a horizontal rectangle split into eight parts for a mouth. The beanie has scribbles.

        He has no neck and square shoulders with a Canadian flag on the upper left shoulder and one in the middle. He is all purple. There is a big gray mountain and a yellow moon with ten big craters. It is on the upper right of the paper.
The size of the flags are different, but still a super accurate attempt by Lincoln! (5th grade)

Xiya's Pumpkin (3rd grade)
        My pumpkin is a big yellow head with a cat mouth and eyes. It has three orange bumps like a tiger. It has cute ears with red inside, and the outside of the pumpkin's ears are green. It has a medium-size green like the ears' stem. The stem is vertical. The eyes have white outside and black inside. It also has a purple nose connecting with the mouth. I forgot to tell you, it has a green, small leaf on the right side!
Great writing, Xiya! And what a cute kitty cat pumpkin! Vianna (3rd grade) was able to draw this from Xiya's description!

Juney's Pumpkin (4th grade)
        My pumpkin is light purple. It has a dark pink outline, but not on the stem. The stem is light blue with a vine the same color coming from the bottom of the stem. On the vine, there is a maple leaf that is not colored in. The shape is basically three long ovals squished together. It is sort of a medium size. In the top right corner of the drawing, not the pumpkin there is a yellow and orange moon. The moon is one fourth of a circle, and it is facing your right. Then, in the upper left corner of the drawing, there is a gray, not-colored-in cloud, and another cloud in the lower right corner.
Such a sweet drawing, and so perfectly described! Kylie (4th grade) was able to draw this match!

Congratulations to our winners!

The Monster/Pumpkin Draw Game!

 This Halloween-time game is always a favorite of my returning students!  Here's how you play:

Step 1:Each student draws a monster.  (My younger students drew creative pumpkins.) They should include a background and many different colors to practice using adjectives in their writing.

Step 2: The students write a detailed desription on their monster.  Adjectives are crucial, for every single noun!  Size, shape, color, number.

Step 3: Students exchange written work and attempt to draw each other's monster with no talking or asking for clarification!

Winners are voted on by the class.  Congratulations to our winners below!

Angela's Monster (6th grade)
        My monster has a gorgeous smile with peach colored teeth.  His eyes are drawn using a pencil, with the pencil lead coloring in the whole eye, which is a little smaller than a pinky finger.  Furry the Monster only has one eye because it's facing the left, so it's only showing one side.  The whole body is yellow-green.  There are dark pink bunmy ears on the head.  To be specific, it is considered a dinosaur.  
        Next up, we have the body.  As I mentioned in the first paragraph, it's yellow-green.  There are peach colored spikes along the back and all the way to the tail, the same color as the teeth.  There are pink polka-dots near the spikes.  It has a spiky tail.  It's standing upright.  There are two arms sticking out of the belly.  There are two feet on the bottom of the dinosaur, or polka-dotted monster.
        In the background, use the same green as the dinosaur's whole body for the grass, not too tall.  Make a brown stem, one-side green leaf on the right of the steam, yellow center, and red petals around the center.  Draw the type of flower I just described on the left side of the monster, and one on the right side.  Draw a blue cloud on each side of the dinosaur, making the right one a lot bigger than the left.  When drawing the clouds, make the base flat and three bumps on the top of each cloud (not bumps all over the place like a regular cloud.)

Angela wrote so clearly, from the cloud styles and location, to the flowers, to the direction the monster was facing, that her partner Allison (6th grade) drew this twin picture!


Adelynn's Monster (5th grade)
        My monster has a pumpkin-shaped body, two ovals overlapping an oval in the middle.  The body is orange and medium-sized.
        There is a mushroom on the pumpkin.  The mushroom has a stubby stem that is a light yellow color.  The stem of the mushroom is located where the stem of the pumpkin would be.  The mushroom cap is wide and almost covers the length of the whole pumpkin.  It has a wavy bottom and is bright red with three white spots, one on the left, one on the bottom right side, and one on the top right side of the mushroom.
        There are two eyes, one on the top left side of the pumpkin and one on the top left side of the pumpkin.  They are oval-shaped with points on the ends.  There are two lines coming from the top to the bottom of the eye.  They are slightly curved and there are diamonds for the pupils.  The pupil is black and the iris is dark purple.  The eyebrows are really small compared to the eyes, and are thin black lines that are slightly curved.  They are as wide as your nail, the white part of your nail to be specific.
        The mouth is in the bottom middle part of the pumpkin.  It is the shape of an almost-full moon, with a tongue that is an oval in the bottom of the mouth.  It is a magenta color, and the rest of the mouth is black.
        The legs are almost to the end of the paper.  They are slightly curved lines.  There are four of them on each side of the pumpkin.  On the end of every leg, there is a purple foot.  It is a small circle.
        Under the pumpkin is a wavy line that goes across the paper.  All of the space under the line is a mahogany color.
        There is a sun on the top left corner of the paper.  It is a yellow circle with two little black circles for eyes and a small U-shaped mouth in between the eyes.  There are nine black rays that are just a line, and all of them are spaced evenly.


Wow! Adelynn put a LOT of time and effort into her writing, so her partner Mabel (5th grade) drew this!



Vivia's Pumpkin (4th grade)
        My pumpkin is a large round orange pumpkin with dark orange lines.  It has two dark pink triangle shaped eyes, a dark pink upside down triangle shaped nose, and a dark pink smiling mouth with two fangs hanging off the bottom of the mouth.  It has three long blue straight whiskers on the left and right side of it.  It has a medium blue headband with cat ears attached to it.  It has a sort of thick pencil gray stem that is slightly tilted to the left.  The stem is not that long.  My pumpkin sits on tall green grass that goes almost halfway up the page.  Above it, there is a blue sky.

Wow!  Look at this twin that Ella (4th grade) drew!  Great writing, Vivia, and great reading, Ella!


Jaime's Pumpkin (4th grade)
        My pumpkin is a jack-o-lantern.  It is big and orange, and the mouth looks like a watermelon that is colored in with pencil.  It has big round glasses, the color of pink and purple, but more of a purple, and they are overlapping.  The color of th epumpkin is lightly colored orange with a dark outline of orange. The stem is also outlined with dark green and colored in with light green.  It kind of looks like a volcano because it goes up and then there is a circle connected to it.  It is a light green stem that goes in a loopty loop eight times on the left.  Under the pumpkin is grass with zig zags to the sides.  In the middle of the colored-in grass is where the big pile of dark brown dirt is, in mostly scribbles.  Over him is a small sun on the right hand corner with very short lines going out, mostly toward the left.  It is colored in yellow.  The sky has no color. 
This brother and sister paid had Sibling power!  Little brother Wesley (2nd grade) read carefully and drew this:

Congratulations to our winners!

Monster Draw Game!

This writing game is a favorite of my students!  It's a fantastic lesson in on-demand and descriptive writing.  I teach my students that their job is to create the perfect picture in their readers' minds of exactly what they want them to see.  If a writer misses ONE adjective, the picture is altered!

Here is how this game is played:

Step #1: Draw a monster.

Step #2: Write about your monster with vivid and descriptive language.  Size, shape, color, number!  These types of adjectives were our theme of the day.

Step #3: Trade papers with a partner, and try to draw each other's monster with zero talking!  The only assistance I offered was if someone's handwriting was a little challenging to read.  Othewrise, the students were on their own with reading and drawing their partner's twin monster!

These usually have a few that turn out hilariously different, but of course, the closest ones (voted on by the class) make the blog.  Check these out!


Ian's Monster (4th grade)

        My monster is a mix of a dinosaur, dragon, and a little squirrel, too!  It is a shape or a body of a T-rex.  Its wings are like a bendy rectangle shape.  It has six spikes, and it also has a squirrel tail that's blue.  One of the wings are yellow and has striped patterns.  The other wing is half red and half green.  It has 24 spikes on its body.  Its legs are wide apart.  Its whole body is purple, except the spikes are red.  Also the hands are small and black and they make claws.  It has a shark-like head with sharp teeth, and its eyes are round with a pupil.

Ian got instant feedback on the importance of directional words like "right and left" when he saw that Vivian (3rd grade) drew his monster facing the opposite way.  However, the rest of the details are there, and the class voted theirs the winners!



Jojo's Monster (4th grade)

        My monster is really cool.  He has a circular turqoise head.  He has two big white and black eyes on his head.  He also has a cute smile.  On top of his head, he has two fat red antennae.  On the top of the antennae, there is a circular shape with another black and white eye.

        He has two yellow arms with paws, an dfour claws.  He has a blue body with a circle of green.  He has a striped silver fat white tail.

        He has two magenta legs and two striped blue feet.  I hope you can picture my monster!

Jojo wrote so carefully with all those color adjectives that her partner, an awesome 6th grade reader Adeline, was able to produce this!


Cho's Monster (6th grade)

        My monster has a wolf's head, upper body, and front legs.  He also has a horse's back legs, body, and tail.  He has a wolf's nose and mouth, pointed ears, one having a pink inside. There is a scar running through his eye.  My monster is facing your right.  He is rearing, his front legs bent, one of them behind the other.  His wolf part of the body is gray.  Eyes, nose, and mouth are black.  His scar is red.  His horse's side is just a horse's two legs with a tail.  The wavy tail is magenta.  The legs are gradient of dark purple, to dark blue, to light blue.  There is no background.  Realistic, not cartoonish.  It takes up half the page, and is right in the middle.

Cho nailed the size, shape, color, number, and direction adjectives, so Laila (5th grade) could produce this!

Congratulations to our Fall 2023 winners!

Descriptive Writing Lesson: The Monster Draw Game!

     The "Awesome" class had a slightly more challenging task for Descriptive Writing.  This writing game is a favorite of my students!  It's a fantastic lesson in on-demand and descriptive writing.  I teach my students that their job is to create the perfect picture in their readers' minds of exactly what they want them to see.  If a writer misses ONE adjective, the picture is altered!

Here is how this game is played:

Step #1: Draw a monster.

Step #2: Write about your monster with vivid and descriptive language.  Size, shape, color, number!  These types of adjectives were our theme of the day.

Step #3: Trade papers with a partner, and try to draw each other's monster with zero talking!  The only assistance I offered was if someone's handwriting was a little challenging to read.  Othewrise, the students were on their own with reading and drawing their partner's twin monster!

These usually have a few that turn out hilariously different, but of course, the closest ones (voted on by the class) make the blog.  Check these out!

Dana's Monster (4th grade)

        My monster is an upside-down tear drop shape.  He has two red horns on either side of the top of his head.  They are not very big.  He has two small brown arms on either sie of his body (the upside-down tear drop shape).  They are both cone-shaped.  He has two big gray eyes, with one eyebrow above each one.  Then, at the bottom of his body, there are two small, cone-shaped brown legs.

        His body is separated by three wavy diagnonal lines, all going fro right to left.  The first line is a little above half of his body.  It is all blue.  Below that is a line just above the bottom of my monster.  This section is green.  The rest is black.

        For his face, there are two small gray dots for nostrils just below his eyes.  And below that, he has a U-shaped mouth that is gray.

Dana wrote so clearly that her partner Cho (5th grade) drew this!:

Armin's Monster (5th grade)
        My monster is a big triangle cut into three portions, just like a candy corn.  The top section is all blue.  The middle section has two giant oval red eyes in it.  The rest of the middle section is green.  The bottom section has a very tiny circle for a mouth.  That tiny circle is red.  The rest of the bottom section is purple.  The background is all yellow.  The triangle, or monster, is as big as you can draw it on the paper.
Armin and his partner Irene (5th grade) debated on the effectiveness of the "candy corn" part of Armin's writing, and were pretty entertaining to listen to on the day we judged the winners!  However, the class voted these as practical twins!

Connor's Monster (4th grade)
        My monster has one big brown head with two big light green horns.  Also it has five gray eyes and eight yellow teeth.  It has red inside of the mouth.
        My monster's torso is blood red.  There are four long arms.  On the left side they are orange, and on the right side, they are blue.  The small hands are the same color as the arms, with sharp claws
        The monster has four small legs that are gray blue.

Connor's partner Liam (4th grade) was able to draw this close match!


Arielle's Monster (6th grade)
        My monster is called a Trog, and he looks like a tree.  He is a long, medium sized tree, colored brown.

        He is a bare tree, so the top of the tree ends in three different sized spikes.  Think of how tree braches look like at the top of the tree, and draw three of them.  Other than the top of the tree, he is completely branchless.

        My trog, also known as a tree dog, is pretty cute.  His eyes are half circles pointing down-ish.  Just think of the normal scary ghost eyes.  My trog eyes are completely colored black.  My trog has a regular smile, but it's a smile with two white fangs.

        My trog has two sets of paws.  Think of two u's and another two u's below.  My trog has a tail.  It kind of curves up, then has little lines (representing the fur) down.  His tail is a little bit below the second pair of paws, but not at the very bottom.  The tail is on YOUR right.

        In the first pair of paws on YOUR RIGHT, he's holding an ice cream.  He has a brown cone, a pretty longish triangle with left diagonal lines.  Then there is a red scoop of ice cream, then a blue scoop of ice cream, then a purple ice cream scoop.  Then a cherry.  And then there are two ghosts.  One next to the purple scoop, and one on the left side.

Arielle got Mika (6th grade) to draw this tree twin!


Max's Monster (5th grade)
        First, draw a large circle in the middle.  Then draw twenty black stubby lines on the top of the circle.  Now draw a cookie-sized circle in the top middle of the other circle.  Under the cookie sized circle, draw an orange triangle the size of a penny.  Under the triangle, draw a horizontal red banana.  Now draw two blue vertical half bananas under the red banana.  Under the large circle, draw two light blue skinny legs.  Under the legs, put 3-toed feet that are red.  In the two corners, put two medium size orange pumpkins, with a green stem on the top of them.  On each side of the big circle, put two red spikes.  In the cookie sized circle, put two oval yellow eyes.  Color the rest of the cookie sized circle black.  Color the rest of the big circle light blue.  

        Now to the background.  On the top two corners, draw simple black bats.  Now color the rest of the background dark purple.

With such an explicit "how to" essay, Max got Justin (5th grade) to draw this twin!  

Congratulations to our winners!

Monster Draw Game!

Adjectives, adjectives, adjectives!  They tell size, shape, color, and number.  And if you don't include them, your reader will get an incomplete picture in their mind of what you are trying to describe!  That was the theme of our On Demand Writing Game, "Monster Draw."  Here is how you play:


Step 1: Draw a monster, complete with background if you have time.
Step 2: Describe every aspect of your monster and background.  Don't leave out a single detail!  Because....
Step 3: Trade descriptions with a partner.  Now you will draw each other's ONLY by reading what they have written.  No talking or asking questions allowed!
As you can see, this game gives students instant feedback about their ability to use detail in their writing.  We all had some good laughs as pictures were compared near Halloween Day.  The winners were voted on by the class, and this year, all happened to be 5th graders!  Enjoy!

Jessie's Monster (5th grade)
        My monster is not like a normal monster; it has an oval shaped body, with the face and legs and arms all connected to it.

        He has a furry, light mossy green oval for his entire body, with small triangles on the edge to represent the fur.

        In the upper area of his body, there is one eye, medium-sized, but compared to a human eye, very large.  It is shaped like an oval, with a dark-ash green pupil right below the center.  It also has bright curved yellow horns sticking out of the top of the head.

        In the lower area of its body, there is a wide mouth, not touching the end, but just a little lower than the center point.   There's a bright red tongue sticking out of the middle of the smile.

        The arms of the body are slanted downwards, but not completely, with a trick-or-treat bag, like a jack-o-lantern, with pencil colored triangular shaped eyes.  The point is facing upwards.  The nose is slightly smaller with the point facing downwards.  The mouth is a half circle, lying horizontally, with one uncolored tooth in it.  The bag is colored orange with a handle.  The monster is holding the bag to YOUR left.  The legs are on the bottom of the body with sticks connected to red colored half circles, with the flat part facing down.

        On YOUR left is a crescent moon, with three stars on the right.  The pine tree is on the right side of the paper, with bright green on the top, and a brown trunk.  The ground is outlined in brown and a little lower than the center.  
Wow!  So descriptive!  Check out this twin Vivian (5th grade) was able to draw!






Audrey's Monster (5th grade)

        My monster is circular and green with buff arms.  It has three eyes that are in the air.  One of the eyes is large, the second one is small, and the third one is medium.  The eyes have Ong green sticks to hold them up.  The eyes are white with black outlines.

        The chest of the monster is green, but is mostly covered with a black suit and blue tie.  The monster has two arms and he his flexing his muscles.  He also has a mouth above his suit.

        His legs are medium sized and also green.  On his legs he has some blue shoes that go up to his ankles.

        The monster also has a propeller hat that is on top of his eyes.  The propeller hat is red, yellow, blue, and green.  The background consists of five clouds scattered in the back of him.

        He is yelling, "I'm going to be late for work!  Where are my pants?"

Wow!  Such clear descriptive language!  Erin (5th grade) was able to draw this close match!
 

Colby's Monster (5th grade)

        My monster doesn't know it's creepy, or half of it doesn't know!  My monster has two pink circular heads with orange hair, which is in two pigtails.  Both heads are the same, but one head is smiling and one is frowning.  The left one is smiling, and the right one is frowning.  Both heads on my monster have two purple eyes and no nose.

        The middle part of my monster is a rectangle that is missing the top corners.  It is wearing a shirt that is half black with a moon that is a crescent.  It kind of looks like a banana.  On the other half it is blue with  a sun.  Each side has two handless arms reaching for tables.  On the smiley side, the table is a thin rectangle with a black lining and blue legs.  My monster's legs are like carrot noses with an orange outline and green polka dots.  There are four of them.

        A gray cloud lingers above the monster with gray mist everywhere.  Above the smiley heads head, there is a small green plant.  It has a small colorless stem, and above the frown one there is a brown plant with a black stem.  Both plants have four long clover-like leaves.

        The frowny head's table has small black dots on it and is identical to the smiley one's.  The smiley one has a present and a new shoe on i.
Sasha (5th grade) is such a careful reader!  She drew this picture for the win!


Congratulations to our winners!
