A Sweet Celebration

Yesterday the children were full of excitement with Valentine's in hand! Beautifully decorated boxes arrived to our classroom and the children waited patiently for our Valentine's Day celebration in the afternoon.

The students first hand-delivered Valentine's into each others boxes.


We took the time to read each of the Valentine's that filled our boxes.


We had quite a spread thanks to the wonderful parents.

So we filled our bellies with lots of candy & sweets...


Played games...


Decorated Valentine's...


& filled our bellies some more!

The students had such an awesome day celebrating Valentine's Day in our own special way!

Next week, the children will become researchers and soon-to-be experts on Chinese culture and traditions. We are excited to dive into this inquiry project with the students and see where it takes us.
