Teachers' Questions: Valentine's Day

Q: Hi Richard, What do you have for Valentine's Day? - Megan, Germany
There are quite a few ideas on the site...
The most obvious is the "I love vegetables" picture book. It isn't suitable for everyone, but if you think your kids will like
Valentine's Day activities in general, this is bound to get a chorus of
"ahhhh"s at the end, especially from the girls.
My favourite game is the Broken Hearts Game not too "valentiney", but a good language practice.
Or for a more craft type lesson: Make a Valentine Card
The "Yes/No" fortune telling game is also fun for older kids. Get them to make up questions in groups, then
come to the front to ask the computer and choose the card!
You could also try playing a game such as the ski game, but instead of the "Finish line", draw a picture of a cool
restaurant and attach a picture of a famous movie star, actress, actor
etc.. Then, instead of a skier or snowboarder, make a cut out of two people
that the kids know. Good ideas are maybe yourself, another teacher or the
head teacher. Play the game, and the race is to see which person will reach
the restaurant and get the Valentine's date with the famous star!!!
There's also Brian Sabin's "Spin the bottle"
And the "How are you?" Game has the "I love you" phrase included!
Hopefully these should help!
Be genki,
Richard
