Be my Valentine!

I Like Hearts

We had a wonderful week with all our PreK friends. We learned a new song about hearts. Not only was it great colour recognition practice but helped us build important listening skills too.  We all held a coloured heart in our hand and as we heard the name of our heart colour, we placed it in the middle of our circle. 

My Heart Fills with Happiness

We read this beautiful story about different things that make our heart happy. After we all shared something that makes our heart happy. We collected all the ideas on a big heart.


Drumming

In the story, My Heart Fills with Happiness, the author talked about drumming. We decided to try a drumming circle. The PreK's did a great job beating the drum fast and slow. We moved our bodies to the beat.



Valentine's Hunt

We went on a scavenger hunt throughout the whole school hunting for valentine-themed pictures. We stamped our paper as we found them!


Heart Art

We made 2 different, both very cool, hearts using different painting techniques. One was marbling using shave cream and paint. The other used baking soda and liquid water colour. It was exciting to see the colours fizz as we squeezed the paint onto the heart!  We practiced our scissor skills cutting our hearts before making our awesome art creations.



Valentine's Party!

We were so excited to celebrate Valentine's Day and meet new friends on our party day. We played party games and popped popcorn. Thanks so much to all the families who sent in snacks. The highlight of the day was definitely delivering valentines to all our PreK friends and teachers.
