The white board from one of Derek S. McGrath's classes shows "the monster and the box" lesson: to the left is a one-eye circular creature with fangs and tiny chicken legs, to the left of a box. The box says "Friday." Between the monster and the box are options for finishing the sentence, such as "is by," "surrounded by," "around," "next to," "beside," and "close to."
