Dot Week

Last week we celebrated "Dot" week in our classroom. We read "The Dot" by Peter H. Reynolds. 
Each day of the week we celebrated the story in a different way. 

On Monday, September 16, we read the story and created our own dots using coffee filters. We coloured the filters with water colour markers and then sprayed them with water. 

Here are a few examples:
 

On Tuesday, we watched a youtube version of "The Dot".

On Wednesday, we did a writing activity. Ms. McIntyre gave us a blank dot and we had to think outside the box to turn our dot into something different.  

These are a few examples of our creations: 



















On Thursday and Friday, we used dots to make a painting. We used a pencil to write our first initial of our first names and dotted the initial with crayon. The next day we had to make watercolour circles overtop of the crayons. 



"Dot" week was a lot of FUN!
