International Dot Day is Sept.15, based on the book TheDot. Below is a link to the story in video. Each year we love to celebrate it with lots of dot activities. Every child made at least one dot out of pastel and paint and we made a beautiful tree. We also did our name in dots, made patterns with dot stickers, used bingo daubers to make pictures at the paint centre, sorted buttons, sorted and made patterns at the light table. Our kissing hand, how we felt on the first day of school. Our school has been learning about empathy, we have watched videos and read stories about it. Ask your child what empathy means, hopefully they can say that it is understanding how others are feeling. Here is a great we read at school if you want to watch it with your child. BuddiesHere is our finished project with our grade 4 buddies and the other kindergarten class. Better Together!
