Mouse's First Valentine

This week at preschool we read Mouse's First Valentine.

After story-time we recalled the things Mouse used to make her Valentines.  Then we made a list of her supplies. List making together is a great way to share with young learners the importance of print, and how we use it on a day-to-day basis.  

We decided to make our own Valentines.  We went down our list, collected the items we needed, and got right to work.  

Our Valentines turned out to be super sweet!

As an added little bonus, we got to use our word wall to write messages to our friends and family.  We also did a little experimenting with silent e, which elicited many laughs.    
Hooray for early literacy FUN!
