One step further...

I have taken this "compliment" idea one step further. About a month before Valentine's Day, I begin having the students write "warm fuzzy" letters to each other. I give them Valentine writing paper and put 2 students names| on the board. Everyone writes to those 2 students, telling unique gifts they have and what makes them a good friend or classmate. I collect these everyday. I also send a note home to parents, asking them to write a Valentine letter to their child on the Valentine writing paper I have included. I ask that they return it to me. I also write a letter to each child on the day his/her | |
name is on the board. Then I make a cover, "Valentine Thoughts from the Heart" and I bind each student's booklet together. I pass it out on Valentine's Day and it is a huge hit. Parents and students from previous years tell me they save it and reread it again and again. This idea may not work for this year, but it's worth a thought for another year.
