Celebrating creativity and a belief that you have the courage to "make your mark" is a message Lafayette students embraced with gusto as we celebrated DOT DAY today along with 1.4 million children around the world!
We "Made Our Mark" on a huge mural in the Great Hall!
We wore dots and stickers to show our courage and creativity...some of us created our own things to wear!
We wrote messages about how our teachers
make their mark!
We created dots of all kinds during our recess using sidewalk chalk! By the end of the day our playground was filled with ART and symbols of Lafayette's creativity!
Based on the children's book "the Dot" by Peter Reynolds (read here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t5mGeR4AQdM) the message of the book of believing in your own creativity and being brave enough to "make your mark" is taking the world by storm every September 15. Thank you to all our Lafayette families who joined in by wearing dots to symbolize their belief in "I CAN BE CREATIVE and I AM COURAGEOUS!" and who added to our dot extravaganza day!
