Unique Valentine's Day Teaching Resources
February Teaching Ideas
Welcome to the Valentine's Day Teaching Resources section of my website.
Love is in the air and I have created unique Valentine's Day and February resources for English, power point activities, bulletin board displays, and blank writing stationary.
Since Valentine's Day is not a very large holiday, I have not created as many themed resources for this holiday as I did for October, November, and December. All of my Valentine's Day teaching resources can be found on this page.
1. Valentine's Day Power Point Teaching Resources
This section contains powerpoint lesson plans with a Valentine's Day theme. Many students find traditional grammar exercises boring and dull. I encourage you to use powerpoint presentations to bring life to these boring exercises.
My Valentine's Day powerpoint lesson plans have been designed using two fonts: Arial Black and Comic Sans. I chose these fonts because they are the most widely found on most computers, and they will not change the style and format when viewed on your classroom computer. I use graphic animations and powerpoint animations when I am designing my powerpoints, and I try to locate colorful background templates for the presentations that I prepare.

3. Valentine's Day Stationary Sets
This Valentine's Day teaching resources section contains examples of colorful Valentine's Day stationary and matching display banners.
It is often difficult to get students enthusiastic about writing assignments, but I have found that students instantly become more interested in writing activities when the response worksheets are unique and/or colorful. For final draft writing assignments, when I give my students colored worksheets to write on, I have found that they tend to use their best effort and they are more careful to not make careless spelling, grammar, and punctuation errors.
I have designed my Valentine's Day teaching resources stationary and worksheets to have large border trims on them. I cut the white edges off of my students' color stationary, as I think that they look better displayed on the bulletin board this way.
Each of my sets of Valentine's Day stationary sets contain the following:
5 page matching banner for your bulletin board display
Black and white worksheet for students to write their first drafts
Color worksheet for your students to write their final drafts
