I’m sharing the love this week with a round-up of Valentine activities from my blog and TpT store that span across every age and grade level from pre-K to high school! Some are FREE, others are food-themed and all are fabulous ways to address so many speech and language goals this week. So let’s get to the heart of the matter and check out all the activities I have to offer. Lots of great ideas are just a heart beat (and mouse click) away. Wishing you a great Valentine’s Week, from the bottom of my heart!
1. Don’t Steal My Heart! {and other ways to use Valentine candy hearts in therapy}
This activity is ideal for the pre-k and elementary crowd. See how I combined fun and functional by using conversation heart candies to reinforce our target sounds in therapy.
2. Sweet Hearts for your sweethearts—and FREEBIE ideas to win their hearts!
A sweet treat simple enough to create at school or make at home and share with your special Valentines.
One of the most popular topics with the younger kiddos is superheroes and princesses, which is the inspiration for this Valentine game.
This activity is great for your younger and older students alike….
and the accompanying homophones activity I Heart Homophones was created for the middle/high school crowd!
4. An idioms activity for your “big kids.” Roses are Red Violets are Blue. Created for your high schoolers and the perfect way to broach the topic of dating! I guarantee you’ll have their full attention for this one.
5. A FREEBIE adaptable for all ages—teach the importance of kindness and using descriptions with this activity!
6. Valentine Barrier Game–for the elementary level: “Your Heart is in the Right Place”
7. For older students: Speech Is Like a Box of Chocolates—-addresses multiple language goals AND includes a craftivity for creating your own chocolate box!!
8. And finally, February is American Heart Month. I had to include this new item—also made for your older students. A great way to address nutrition and fitness while teaching language goals: The Healthy Heart and Language Mart
And that’s the round-up!! With so many activities to share, I must really love the month of February! Hope you find something you love here too! I’d love to hear what you used this month in your speech and language sessions!!
