Valentines Day Lesson

Here is an easy lesson with very little prep and can be used with pretty much any grade level.  All you need is a big heart. I like to use Microsoft office. Go to shapes and you can make one as big as you would like. The only materials you will need are the hearts and writing utensils. 

  •      Ask students to divide the heart into 5 sections. The sections do not need to be equal. 4 lines could be drawn horizontal, vertical, or diagonal. Students can also come up with a combination of their own. 
  •       Next students will be asked to write answer different questions in each box.
  • Box 1- people they love. Includes family, friends, and pets
  • Box 2- places they love
  • Box 3 - what they love to do
  • Box 4 - why they love them
  • Box 5 - ideas they love. This can be hard for some students. I share examples for this one. Recycling, being active, eating healthy
  • From here it is really up to you to decide what to do. I ask students to share at least one item off their heart and post around the room. 
Happy Valentine's Day!
