Peter H. Reynolds Can Join Your Celebration!
|
Many schools are already bringing Peter into their classrooms with the Interactive Version of The Dot. Use this software with your students to explore and interact with the classic book The Dot. With optional narration by Peter and a special "Meet the Author" video, this program is like having a virtual author visit from Peter himself!

Make Your Mark through Creative Writing

The Reynolds Center TLC and FableVision are thrilled to have Lulu Jr.'s support in spreading the word about Dot Day
this year!
FableVision and Lulu Jr. share a mission
to get kids to tell their stories. We've also had the pleasure of collaborating on some wonderful tools to help young authors bring their stories to life. Take a peek at Lulu Jr.'s My Awesome Book and My Comic Book kits - both are incredible tools for turning your creative ideas into a published book!
 As part of our shared excitement about creativity and self-expression, Lulu Jr. and FableVision have partnered to launch a giveaway. All you need to do is tell us about a story you'd like to create! Lulu Jr. will choose 5 creative entries to win autographed copies, signed by Peter, of both Lulu Jr.'s awesome bookmaking kit, My Awesome Book, and a copy of The Dot.

Perform "The Dot Song" with your class!
 "The Dot Song," created by Singer-songwriter Emily Dale and Peter H. Reynolds, is being played all around the world!
Use these musical resources in your classroom this Dot Day and have your students sing along with the beautiful melody.

Share Your Dot Day Stories with Us!
We encourage you to share this email with your educator colleagues. And, if possible, consider celebrating in the weeks to come by "connecting the dots" with
a neighboring school or library. Many are planning to collaborate with other classes from around the world via Skype, but use any video conferencing platform you
have available."
