Description

Hey, Sweet Teacher Friends!

The Sweetheart Snatcher is an engaging activity to use around Valentines Day in February. This pack includes multiple curriculum connections that could be used in correspondence with this activity, but allows you to do as little or as much as you want with your particular class. Feel free to use the optional lesson plan included, or adapt it to suit the needs of your students. It will also add to any candy heart activities you do to celebrate the season – i.e. graphing, sorting, etc.

During the hunt, students are encouraged to either make predictions or inferences. Afterwards, you may complete any or all of the extension activities included.

Above all, celebrate the sweetness of the season with your students and have fun! Your kiddos will LOVE the thrill of the hunt!
