International Dot Day!
Every year, students around the world participate in International Dot Day on (or around) September 15th in order to celebrate creativity, courage, and collaboration.
Lyman students celebrate Dot Day (video by Michelle Gohagon)
This year, classes gathered in the Lyman Library to celebrate. We read "The Dot" by Peter Reynolds, talked about the different ways we can "make our mark" on the world, and discussed ways that we feel encouraged and ways we can encourage others.
Afterwards, students collaborated with each other in making dot art (both 2D and 3D), used a virtual dot-making application on iPads, and designed Core Ethical Value dots.
