Valentines Day is the Best Day to be a teacher!






Dear Friends and Family,
Valentines Day is a great time to be a first grade teacher. I had so much fun helping them make valentines crafts to get ready for the day. First we made valentine mail boxes so that way there was a place for their classmates to put in their valentine cards. Then we made Valentine Cards which was fun for them too. My kids love hands on learning and so anything with cutting and glue they are super happy. I made the rule that they had to give valentines to all their classmates so that way they can learn to be nice to each other and to not leave others out. They were so excited all day to pass out and open Valentines it was hard to teach. The kids were so fun to watch while they passed out cards, because they were so into what they were doing. They had a blast with the candy and cards and now they are big fans of the holiday. I also got a ton of cards from my kids and felt very loved!
