September 15th is the date when Peter Reynolds published his book called The Dot. It is the story of a little girl called Vashti and her journey towards creativity.
Since 2009 more and more teachers have been using this date to celebrate International Dot Day. Classes around the world are using this day to explore the themes of bravery, creativity and self-expression as Vashti did in the story of her dots. Look here to see who has been creating Celebridots!
The Bouncing Dot Official Music Video for The Dot Song from FableVision Learning on Vimeo.as well as this video of The Making of a Dot from Renee Kurilla on Vimeo.will definitely provide even more motivation for my students to get creating.
Let's Make Our Mark On Sept. 15th! I would love to hear your comments about what your students create on International Dot Day!
We made our own marks....
