International Dot Day

As a first day in the art room lesson, the students are I explored the world of dots! First we read the book, "The Dot" by Peter H. Reynolds and then watched the video of it on Youtube! The students loved the main character, Vashti, who at first can not draw, but learns to draw by trying! Next, the students expressed themselves through art by creating their own dot or dots! Kindergarten through 5th grade worked hard on their first art project of the year and I think that they are just colorful and lovely!

Outside of the art room we are showing the rest of the school our work on a display board for International Dot Day! (which is on September 15th!) I am proud of my students and they way they try new things and never give up!
