Valentine's Day

The girls learned a new game today.  After we read the Word Wall, the girls were put into pairs to play the game Word Slap--a game where cards with our Word Wall words are spread on the floor between the two girls.  The teacher reads a word aloud and the first girl to slap the word card, keeps it.  Needless to say, there were many giggles during this game.


Getting into the Valentine's Day spirit, we worked on our graphing skills during math. The girls were then given a handful of candy hearts and sent back to their seats to sort and create their own graphs.



Before our party, we read The Day It Rained Hearts.  


Then Adam Herb presented the game 😂




The girls created cards with bouquets of hearts.

Finally, they opened up their valentines.  It was a wonderful day!
