Valentine Card Holders
Because it was so much fun making
our Valentine Card Holders the last two years, I decided to do them again this year.
The children chose, ahead of time, their design, as well as the background
color of their holder. The graphics used for this project are from
pc Crafter.
Though the directions are
posted on chart paper, another change I made was
to type the directions and hand them out as a worksheet so they could
be reviewed during center work. I did them in checklist form so that
the children could keep track as they proceeded through the steps. We
reviewed what we learned as a skill lesson about following a set of written directions
prior to starting our project.

We learned about teamwork,
lending a helping hand to our neighbor when they were stuck on a step,
and responsibility for cleaning up our mess when our project was
completed. We got a lot accomplished in a short amount of time. Now
all we need are the Valentines!
