THE DOT, by Peter Reynolds, 2003 This lesson plan celebrates International Dot Day with a student art exhibition based on the color study Farbstudie Quadrate, by the French Expressionist, Wassily Kandinsky, well known for his color theory.

The personal narrative is the heart of all writing. Writing isn’t a market analysis and it isn’t a researched argument about global warming.

They also create language art like mind maps, cartoons, and visual poems.
