Letter Vv and Valentine week was fun, especially the heart guy we sent home today. The children did a great job of matching the gloves and the shoes with colors and patterns. We made a valentine holder earlier in the week and put lots of heart stickers on them. Eli said, while peeling the back of several big hearts, “I have a sticky situation here!” We used that line the rest of the week. Ha! Mason said he was going to make his like a demolition derby! Trig was so excited at the thought, he said, “I’m going to put my hearts all over the city! I mean, my valentine holder!” Cute boy!
We sorted and counted candy hearts and played several reading/ sound-blending games. The Spideys beat the Meanies, 10-9, the Scorpions beat the Great Whites, 9-4, and the Poisons beat the Fighters, 6-4. Each time we play, the children care more and more about the win and reading words for points, because the winners get to line up first for treats. That seems to be a significant prize for them! I love finding their hot button!
Next week is Jj week. We will sort and graph some jellybeans and break on the 14th, Wednesday, for our Valentine Party. Please have your child bring 24 signed valentines to pass out and share with everyone. We will frost a valentine cookie and play valentine bingo. Their excitement is mounting! Lincoln has his own excitement a brewing, “Hey! You’d better plan something quick because after Easter, IT’S MY BIRTHDAY!!!!” Ha, ha!
Have a great weekend. See you back on Monday.
Much love and devotion,
