February Classroom Themes
I like to pick a theme in February and continue that theme throughout the entire month. Of course, Black History Month is the topic and highlight of my classroom in February, but I also incorporate love and Valentine’s Day for elementary students. One way we practice sight words throughout the month is with these fun and no-prep foldable books. You can grab a few for free here. If you’re interested in getting the pre-primer version click here.

February Writing Center
To continue our February classroom theme, we take our writing center and transform it into love and sweet goodness, of course. For our students, it is required that we start teaching them to recognize the dates of important events. One question we answer in our writing center is : What day is Valentine's Day on? What month is Valentine's Day? Not only does February Valentine’s Day make its appearance in our writing center, but so do the topics of love and kindness. This writing center take a bit of work to put together, but it still made my top five list of things to make for Valentine's Day.

Valentine's Day Activities for Preschoolers
Last but not least, let’s make some fun Valentine’s Day Activities for Preschoolers! I grabbed these cute heart candies from Target, and you can find the pretzels just about anywhere. The big trick to this edible craft is to take one of the candies and cut the tip off of it. Have students place the hearts on either end of the pretzel to make a delicious and yummy Valentine’s Day arrow.
