Did you celebrate International Dot Day??? We sure did! This was my first year taking part in International Dot Day and we had a blast showing off our creativity and making our mark! The students were first read the book "The Dot" by Peter H. Reynolds in Library class. My co-teacher then read the translated Chinese version to them and then we watched a video of it. As a class we discussed the book and linked it to the IB Learner Profile Attributes and Attitudes. My students decided that the book was about being a Risk-Taker and about having Confidence in yourself. We then got started on making our own dots. Some of the students used markers, some used crayons and the rest chose to paint their dots. It was supposed to be a whole school activity but I think only us and Grade 2 ended up doing it. Grade 2's dots are on the left and ours are on the right. Next year I hope to get the whole school involved!
