Hi friends! How was the weekend? Ours was lovely!
Saturday was the perfect winter day so we took a little hike through the woods.
#doggieheaven - Charlie LOVED leaping through the snow!
And this little cutie kicked and giggled the whole ride :)
What a peaceful afternoon.
Guess what? This week is Valentine's Day! :) Can we all just take a moment and appreciate that it is on a Saturday - which means you don't have to celebrate it until Friday in your classroom and then you get to send you kiddos off for the weekend (or off for winter break if you're like the schools around here)
I do love V-Day :) There are so many cute games and crafts you can do with your kiddos. I've got a few of freebies to share with you:

This center is part of my Valentine's Day Math and Literacy Centers that you can check out here
This is a fun whole-class game of "I have, Who Has" - fact and opinion style!
This next game can be customized. It it a generic game board with blank cards so that you can create your own question cards for whatever content or skill you're students are working on.
And finally - although not a game - I thought I'd share with you these freebie Valentine's cards you print off and give to your students!
You can also check out this post that highlights a fun Valentine's Day game you can make with just sticker dots and Hershey kisses!
