To begin this activity, children made a guess of how many Valentine candy hearts would fit in the heart on their paper. Next, they filled the heart with the candies; counted the candies; and then recorded their answer.
STAR OF THE WEEK~
Today we learned more about our friend, Bittania. Some of her favorites include favorite restaurant: Cheesecake Factory; favorite animal: baby Panda; and favorite dessert Oreos in ice cream. Thank you for helping us get to know you better, Bittania!
Check out what we used to decorate our letter "L"!
HEARTPRINTS~
Today we read the story, Heartprints. Next, we discussed ways we can leave a good "heartprint" on others--saying and doing kind things for someone. We recorded our ideas on a large heart.
We also talked about "bad" heartprints or things that a person says or does to us that makes us feel sad. We recorded our ideas on a large heart and then crumpled it--symbolizing how our hearts feel when someone says or does something unkind to us.
In a basket in our room, we will have "heartprints" that the children can give to one another when a classmate does or says something kind to them. If your child brings home a heart like the one in the photo below, be sure to ask him/her why he/she received the heartprint!
