Valentine's Day

Valentine’s Day is right around the corner and I wanted to send out a couple small details for next week and the big Valentine Exchange on Wednesday, Feb. 14th. This year the students are making their own Valentines bag at school, so no need to make one at home. Last week all students used their math skills, while having fun, creating the parts and pieces to their bags for Valentine’s Day. Each bag is going to be a monster creation of their own that they have to purchase (with fake money). However, the twist is they have a large variety of different parts (arms, eyes, body, etc.) to shop from with only a budget of $2.50. They were able to get silly and creative while using their imagination to create the goofiest monster, within their means. The extra bonus was all students could use calculators to help their addition, which was another learned skill to many. They had so much fun with this! Their order has been placed and will arrive just in time to color, cut and piece together their monster Valentine bag for all Valentine’s!

Speaking of Valentines….

I have names for all students listed below. If your child chooses to bring Valentines to school, please make sure they have a Valentine for all 21 students of our classroom. If your child does not want to participate in passing out Valentines that is their choice, this is an optional activity.
