Valentine's Day Party

Due to all the recent snow days, our Valentine's Day Party is being degraded a little. Instead of a huge party, we are just going to have a small classroom celebration. There will be no craft or lots of food. Students came home with a list of student names for cards. At the party, students can exchange cards, we will have a small treat, and watch a themed movie. I will be incorporating holiday activities into my lessons next week. I am asking students to bring in 50 cents to help cover the cost of the treats.
