Happy Valentine's Day!

Valentine's Day is a favorite holiday for first graders. They love sharing messages and candy with friends, and getting all that mail is great!
Wow - Look at all the stuff! Everyone made special heart "pockets" to hold all of the valentines. We are learning about alphabetical order, so the pockets were taped to the chalk board in order by first names. Half the fun is passing out all the goodies - just like the post office! I forgot to get a picture of the wall of hearts. The kids were too anxious to get started!
Finally, it's time to open ....
find the candy....
and read the messages!
It's a big job packing everything up and getting it home.
Thanks, everyone, for all the great valentines!
