Easy - Spread the LOVE Valentine Project





Easy -  Spread the LOVE Valentine Project - I love this easy Valentine's Day Project.  I took 12 X 18 construction paper, folded it in half, and cut out large hearts.  The students wrote their names in sharpie (large), traced their name in glue and glittered it.  Then I had the class brainstorm simple words to describe friends.  They came up with: happy, kind, nice, care... I recorded the words on the whiteboard.  Then I had the students use their digital device to look up synonyms for each of the words listed and write them under our starting words.  (This gave the hearts a chance to dry.)  Each student was then instructed to use the words on the board or ones they thought of on their own to write a kind sentence about each student in the class.  You could have heard a pin drop as the students went from heart to heart spreading kindness through words.   Once finished, the students could barely wait to read what their fellow classmates had written.  I hung the hears in the room to enjoy until Valentine's Day.
Do what you love... Love what you do!
