LOVE

The word love is used so often yet it can mean something different every time it's used: 
I love you!  I love pizza!  I love school!
In first grade, we continue to celebrate the Life is Good Super Powers and this month's super power is love.

We read a lot of books about love especially for Valentine's Day and during our Fairy Tale unit. Here's a favorite we've read in class. Click on the book for a read aloud. 



It was fun to celebrate together at our Valentine's Day party. Watching the children pass out Valentine's to each other is so sweet and never gets old!

So remember how powerful love is and to make sure to tell someone or perform an act of love today!
