Valentine's Day

Valentine's was the perfect day to learn about the circulatory system! We read some books about the heart, and also did some fun exercises that got our hearts pumping. The girls had fun finding their pulses and feeling the difference before and after exercising.
We decorated our "h" cutouts with hearts, of course! We also brainstormed "h" words.
The girls had fun completing this heart pattern worksheet. They had to paste the hearts in the correct spot to make the patterns.
We also made this heart craft. We cut out a heart shape in the purple paper, then we painted paper towels with watercolor paints. Finally, we taped the paper towel to the back of the heart cut out and hung the craft on the window. They look so pretty with the sun shining through! We ended our day reading a book of Valentine's poems.
