I always forget but quickly remember how tired I am after Valentine's Day!! Phew! What a fun day we had, but I am wiped out! I think the kids had a great time and our fun isn't even over yet!! I did not send their Valentine's home today because we are going to to sort them and complete the Scrapbook Deanna Jump has in her Valentine's Unit! Fun!!
Here are some of the things we did today!
The February Family Project is for them to decorate a box for the Valentine's Exchange. This project is fantabulous because I love seeing the creativity of each of the families! They turned out adorable as always!! Here are some more!
We did a Valentine Rotation this morning again while my co-teacher was with us. One group sorted and graphed candy hearts, one group estimated and one group made Valentine's and passes out their Valentine cards.
After lunch we completed the "How many letters do you have on your conversation heart?" graph. I found this idea on Chalk Talk: A Kindergarten Blog.
Tomorrow morning for morning work they are going to complete this page about our graph. They are so much better at analyzing our data and recording it!!
You can find this <HERE> :)
And last but not least we ended our day with a little celebration! Cupcakes, cookies and juice are a perfect way to end a wonderful day!! :)
Happy Vatentine's Day!!
I really like the idea of the boxes being a family project!
