This project was inspired by the book The Dot by, Peter Reynolds. This project would be great for younger children. In this activity you would need to have coffee filters, oil pastels, crayons, markers, and water colors. The best part of this activity is that it allows students to be creative and explore the tie dye affect that happens.
I could use this project in the classroom with language arts. I would have everyone make their own dot with different colors and shapes. Once every student is done with their dot I would allow them to use creative writing and they will create a story. They have to use their dot to come up with a beginning, middle, and end. They will use cursive handwriting to script their story on a sheet of paper and glue their dot onto the same sheet of paper.
