Five for Friday {14th Feb}

I'm linking up with Kasey at Doodlebugs for another 5 for Friday.

Week 3 is complete! My kiddos are finally feeling like my kiddos which is the best feeling. We have been super busy this week and I remembered to take some photos :)

~ One ~
We made these adorable cards today for Valentine's. Go here to get the free template.

~ Two ~
The kidlets are adapting to my "we'll take a photo" policy of packing up lego & play dough, etc. They are such cuties.

~ Three ~
We made our "Love is.." book today. Their answers were {mostly} very sweet.

~ Four ~
We made Love Bots! The craft was from here. I forgot to take a pic of the display (I will) but they looked adorable.

~ Five ~
We read "Love, Splat!" this week. The pics they drew were adorable.

I Love You to Pieces Valentine's Freebie

I whipped up this quick Valentine's Day activity this morning which I found here.



If you'd like a copy of the template I made click here to download it from google drive. Heart graphic from Mel at Graphics from the Pond.

Valentine's Day!

Found this super cute freebie from the 1st grade teacher on TpT. Valentine's Bookmarks!

I laminated these and added the curling ribbon for gifts to take home- would have loved to use white & pink ribbon but I didn't have any. Click on the pic to get the link!

Tomorrow we are going to make these Love Bugs (I'm renaming them Love Monsters to fit into our Letter of the Week "Mm") from 2nd Grade Pad

I printed the free template on white paper and we will use these parts to make a Love Monster- so I'm not worried where they put the different parts. On the circles they will put the name of someone in their family who the Love Monster is for, e.g. Mum and Dad.

Happy V-Day everyone! It's always a good thing to give a bit of love and thanks back out their to family, friends and our poppets. Hope you get a lot back in return!

Valentine's Day Freebie

I haven't ever celebrated Valentine's Day  in my classroom before but with all the cute things on Pinterest I thought I might this year. Just found this great freebie from the Toffee Mag blog.

Planning to print either the heart or 'Be My Valentine' tag and attach to a tea bag and send these home (to Mum, Dad, grandparents, etc) in a zip lock bag with a bag topper like this one

from Anything But Perfect (another great freebie).

If you like my Valentine's Day Blinkie check out Grade ONEderful for this super cute freebie!

If anyone has any other ideas I would love to hear them!
