Title - Count the hearts
By - Natalie Maltais
Subject - Valentine's Day
Grade Level - K-5
Children love this activity. I buy some cinnamon hearts or any Valentine candy and put them all in a jar. For the lower levels they must write their name and their guess to how many hearts are in the jar. The child closest to the correct number wins the jar and all the candy in it. For the higher levels they must write out the number correctly. Once more the child that is correct gets the jar and candy. This can be used in Math for estimation and in second languages to review number writing.
