My Project

Valentine's Day is the perfect time for students to learn how to make and keep friends, share, and play together. Friendship is what we focus on during the month of February.

Working together as a classroom community has been a huge part of our school's PBIS focus and I am loving seeing the strong relationships my students are making throughout the day during our SEL lessons.

It is so cool seeing how my students are working as a team and supporting each other while working together.

These fun Valentine's Day supplies will be passed out at the end of the day and students will get to talk, share, and create together while no one is left out or feeling sad because they didn't get to pass out treats or cards- they will get to focus on creating friendship trees, love sticker monsters and they will all get headbands, stickers, and glasses to wear that celebrate love and friendship.

All donations will be very much appreciated!
