Dot Day

 

Description: For this assignment, we learned about dot day and what it entails. We learned how to make dots with coffee filters. We were able to write with white crayon on the coffee filter before painting. We then used watercolor paint to paint the coffee filter with whatever colors we wanted.

Extension activity: An activity that could be added to this project is the students could do a gallery walk around the classroom to see how other students made their dots. After they did the gallery walk, they could make another dot with the coffee filters, but with new ideas from others. They cannot copy other students’ dot though. They can only take ideas from them, and use those ideas on the new one.
