For International Dot Day we read “The Dot” by Peter H. Reynolds and students were able to create their own dots to celebrate! They did such an amazing job with our first time painting in art this year and I couldn’t be more proud of how their wonderful, creative work turned out! - Ivy Mattson, Art Teacher
