Friendship Unit and Exciting News!!!

One of our favorite months to teach is February.  In the month of February, we teach two themes ~ Valentine and Friendship.  Right about this time of the year...our students always need a little reminder on how to be a good friend.  This unit is special to us because with all the expectations demanded of our little kiddos, ultimately we realize how important it is to have friends!  They make learning more engaging and fun!

Here are some pictures of our Friendship Unit...hope you like...much~much more is included in our unit that is not pictured!

The students will use a mirror to read the sight word or phrase that was text to them. 



If a student rolls a side with a girl and boy the friend they are working with at that center gets to pick the number.  

The students will search the room and write the words found.  Then he/she will read the sentence to the teacher.  (A true friend is a gift to keep.)  














As a group the students will brainstorm things for each category.   Write at least 3  in their friendship booklet.  


We have a friendly surprise for you!  We just opened a TPT shop and would love to GIVE AWAY 3 Friendship Units.  All you have to do is...
  • Go to our Teachers Pay Teachers  Shop and follow our shop.  
  • Leave a comment on our blog post that you followed our shop with your e-mail address.  
This giveaway will run until Monday at Midnight! 

You can find this Friendship Unit in our Teachers Notebook Shop and our Teachers Pay Teachers Shop.

Happy Week Everyone!  Thanks for being a "GREAT FRIEND" and reading our blog!
