9/12/2013 September 12, 2013Today I introduced students to the story of The Dot by Peter H. Reynolds. I didn't have the book but we watched an animated version of the story. This book and its theme have developed into a celebration called International Dot Day. The theme of the story celebrates creativity, courage, and collaboration. After watching the story and also seeing how students in one school used iPads to create "digital dots," third graders made their own creative dots using KidPix. They exported their image to the desktop and next week they will upload it to their existing blog post. It is a symbol of their "mark on the world" and the creativity inside each of them.
