DOTS! Creative-thinking, courage & collaboration

6th Grade collaborative watercolor painting
INTERNATIONAL DOT DAY IS SEPT. 15TH-ISH.

It all started with the children's book The Dot by Peter H.
Reynolds and has become an international phenomenon
celebrating creative-thinking and courage. What happens
when you don't have a pattern to follow, make a mark
and see where it leads?
