Dot Day

Today we celebrated Dot Day by reading 'The Dot' by Peter Reynolds.  We also listened to the song and worked on a piece of art inspired by the story.  We also learned about a really cool app that made our dots come to life.  Watch this video to see how it is done!

International Dot Day and Lines

Today is International Dot Day (and Nikil's birthday) based on the book "The Dot" by Peter H. Reynolds.  Before watching the video, we did a lesson on types of lines.  We brainstormed and drew lots of different kinds of lines in our new art portfolios.  Check out the variety of lines we came up with!

After watching the video 'The Dot', we created our own 2D dots and got to see them transform into 3D spheres using the colAR Mix app (free...itunes and android).  Here are some great examples!

Some kids got 'dotty' and dressed up their shirts with...DOTS!
