The Dot

In this activity we listened to the book called The Dot by Peter Reynolds.  The story was about believing in yourself and never giving up. A student though she could create art and so she just made a dot, and didn't think it was art. Her teacher then framed it and had her sign it. She then realized that anything can be art you just have to be creative and believe in yourself. We then got to make our own dots from coffee filter. We decorated them by using watercolors and oil pastels. 

Extension Activity: The students could write their sight words on them and then decorate them however they feel fit. We could then hang them up around the classroom and they could be a fun way for the students to see their sight words.
