Today is Dot Day! This international day is named for the classic Peter H. Reynolds book, The Dot. This book shares the story of a girl who begins a journey of self-discovery after a caring teacher challenges her to 'make her mark'. After much discussion about why Mr. Reynolds wrote the story students were given the opportunity to create their own dot, incorporate it into a picture and write about it. Wow...love of creativity! Our math lesson was also filled with dots...domino dots followed by a Dot Candy challenge. For this challenge students were given ten Dots and toothpicks to create anything they wanted. Once they finished they took a picture of it and posted it to their blog. Check out a few pictures I snapped...pretty creative!
