Love
There are lots of lovely activities to focus on throughout the month of February. I like to use the theme of love to link in with Valentines Day on February 14th.

Some ideas:
Literacy acrostic love poems, writing a letter/card to say thank you to a family member or friend, 50 things I love, create a love potion.
S.E.S.E Valentines Day around the word.
Art Valentines day art and crafts. Love monsters.
