International Dot Day

                                          Global Connection

                            

Friday, September 13th was Internationl Dot Day. We celebrated with 1,000 classrooms around the world and the astronauts on the International Space Station. Together we read The Dot by Peter Reynolds.

We proudly wore our dots on our hands throughout the day.

The message Peter Reynolds wanted us to learn . . .
                   just get started - TRY

Following the read aloud students were given a piece of plain white paper just like Vashti. They did some thinking about something that was hard for them to do. They were then encouraged to fill the page with that thing.

The DOTS of The Happy Little Hurleys can be found on the Coolidge Facebook page. Check us out.
