Happy Valentine's Day!

The students had a wonderful day yesterday sharing their Kind Comments and creating a heart full of love. They spent more time stopping to read comments and finding out who said what, than they did gluing and adding stickers. This class is a community of learners that care about each other and it shows in the kindness they shared.

Kind comment heart creations

Despite today's early release, we celebrated a belated Valentines Day by sharing kind comments and creating a heart full of love.

Some of the students got so involved reading their comments they needed reminders to glue them. Everyone had such nice things to say about their classmates. 

We had a great variety of stickers to use in creating these masterpieces, thank you!

This class loves cutting, gluing and creating (the creativity continued during our short indoor recess later too.).

Once the doilies, comments, and stickers were applied, students had a chance to add glitter glue--always a favorite! Hopefully everything will be dry tomorrow so they can go home. 

Many thanks to the parents who were able to volunteer. We had a last minute time change and I know many were not able to attend due to the early release. We hope to have you in to volunteer soon!

Kind Comment Hearts

The students had a blast today sharing their kind comments for each other and putting everything together in an amazing collage. No two hearts came out the same and their creativity shone through with the way they arranged comments, placed stickers and added glitter glue. A few with glitter glue are still drying in the classroom and will come home tomorrow!

Candy Heart Graphing

For math today the students used a box of candy hearts to practice and important math skills. They needed to sort their hearts to establish categories, organize their data and record it on the graph, and then made observations about the graph. We discovered that within the room there were more pink hearts then any other color, but white and green were hard to come by.
