Valentine's Day Art

Today, we made some hearts for our Valentine's Day bulletin board. First, the students picked their color of heart: pink or purple. After they cut out their heart, they chose two colors of tissue paper. Then, they cut the tissue paper apart and glued it to the heart. They had to made sure the tissue paper was glued down as flat as they could. Last, I squirted glitter glue onto their heart, and they used a paint brush to spread it around. This made the hearts very sparkly, which we love! The bulletin board looks great. We're ready for Valentine's Day!
We also celebrated J's 6th birthday today. He brought in delicious cupcakes to share with us.
