9/13/2016 September 13, 2016This week we celebrated International Dot Day by watching and then discussing the video of The Dot by Peter H. Reynolds. In this story a girl who believes she is not good at art develops self confidence and begins to enjoy being creative. She then encourages someone else who lacks confidence to just go ahead and try. In the afternoon we viewed the Discovery Education Livestream in which the author was interviewed and told how he was inspired to write the story. (Unfortunately someone did not determine his microphone was not working properly until halfway through the broadcast!) Third graders created their digital dots using the ABCYA paint program and saved the images. Next week we will create our first blog post and incorporate the dot image.
