SWAP

Today we had S.W.A.P. (Stations With A Purpose) We rotate to each classroom to complete an activity with that teacher. This month our theme was Valentines!

In Mrs. Jaysa's room:

This morning we read The Valentine Express, discussed valentines and why we give them. I had the students tell me what love meant to them. Then we made a handprint heart card and the students recorded their answers on their handprints.
 


 







In Ms. Kim's room


The students made a special Valentine snack with Ms. Kim. They learned how to make Rice Krispy treats and punch!

 







In our room we made a sweet valentines for our parents and read the book Valentine's Day Is...







In Ms. Kaley's room the students learned about their hearts. They learned that the heart pumps blood to their bodies. They jogged and felt that their heart beats faster and noticed that it beats slower when they are resting. The students also learned that the heart is the size of their fist. Ms. Kaley also read Our Hearts to the students.
