Hearts, kindness and counting fun
For kindergartners, Valentine's Day is all about kindness and friendship. They talk about ways to show people they care, make cards for classmates, and practice skills with a heart theme: drawing hearts, counting candy hearts, matching pictures and writing their name and a friend's name. The sweetest moment is when a child sounds out L-O-V-E on a card all by themselves.
A sweet theme makes practice extra fun for our littlest learners.
Start the day with the Valentine's Day song and add a hand motion for each kind act it names. Sing it again before cards go home. A song sets a warm, kind tone for the whole celebration.
Why it works: words set to a repeating melody are easier to recall than the same words spoken (Wallace, 1994).
