Today we celebrated International Dot Day in our classroom. We started off the day by reading the book The Dot by Peter Reynolds. As a class we discussed the “big idea” of the book – never give up! After the Read Aloud each student colored in their own dot. It was wonderful to see students working together, placing their dots on the floor, open the Quiver app and watched their Dot come to life (3-D). Students then (with the help of a buddy) took a screen shot of their 3-D dot and uploaded the photograph of their 3-D dot to their own blog! What amazing 2nd graders!!
Next week we are going to connect with classrooms all over the world and comment on their dots. For more information on International Dot Day click here. We can’t wait to comment and learn about other classrooms thanks to International Dot Day! Click here to see our dots! Student will need to log in using their 8 digit birthday password.
