Dot Day........

Our classroom took part in celebrating Dot Day on Friday.  National Dot Day was on September 15th, 2012.  This celebration is about taking the time to be creative.  The students did something of their own creations with a dot.  This goes along with the book, "The Dot" by Peter Reynolds.  We have not read the book yet because this week we will meet with our 2nd grade buddies and do another Dot Day activity which includes reading the book.

We were able to go on to the Dot Day international website and view some clips of what other schools have done for Dot Day and to see how much fun it was for them and to get some ideas.

This Dot Day was created by a teacher at North Tama School District....so not to far from here.  We enjoyed working on our dots.  The students were given a circle dot to decorate.  They are hanging in our hallway for you to come check out sometime.

Enjoy our pictures!
