With Valentine’s Day right around the corner, it’s time to spread the love and plan a few heart-themed activities! In this week's episode, I share two of my favorite Valentine’s Day-themed activities that you and your students will love!  The first is a restaurant simulation where students experience what it’s like to order at a restaurant, pay for their meal, and receive change. In addition, they play the role of a server, take someone’s order, calculate the total cost of the meal, and decide how much change to give their customer. Use real menus from actual restaurants and decorate your small group table to create a realistic Valentine’s Day dinner! The second is a festive Valentine’s Day craftivity, Fraction and Decimal Hearts. These hearts will showcase what they’ve learned about fractions and decimals and are the perfect display in your classroom or hallway for February! Finally, I share a fun activity to help students understand the need for common denominators in the Teaching Tip of the Week.
