Our original Alien:

Our word description of our original Alien drawing: Our Alien has two orange pumpkin feet and five green toes on each pumpkin. It has a yellow lightbulb body, screw side up. It has a horizontal turquoise oval head with blue eye balls and yellow polka dots. It also has a wide open yellow beak with orange dots and two tongues. Its neck is orange, red, and yellow. The neck is 1 and a half inches tall. It has two blue crossed arms and two long light and dark blue polka dotted elf ears. Our alien has a pair of purple antennae on her body and on top of her head.

Our Hoover partners' recreation of our Alien, using only our word description:

Reflections on our progress: Dear Henry and Andrea, Your alien was almost like ours. The colors in the alien were almost perfect. We forgot to tell you that the neck was red, orange, and yellow dots. The feet you made were a little too big. We also forgot to tell you that the antennae were long, curvy, and had green hands on the ends. We said, "Our alien has a pair of purple antennae on her body and on top of her head," but " On her body" must have been hard to understand. The toes were round, not sharp. Our pumpkin feet are much smaller and are carved with faces. Our carvings were black. The light bulb was supposed to be screw side up. The fact that you did not read those words was just a misunderstanding. In all, we think the drawing was an 8 out of 10.
