Procedure: From the following list of resources the teacher should choose what activity or card pattern you would want the students to work on.  The below average or average students can choose a cut and paste pattern and the above average students could choose clip art that would be added to their own valentine creative writing activity on the computer.  The students will be divided into groups of four to share ideas and then they can work in pairs or by themselves to complete both of the activities of making and sending a valentine message.  Some students will choose a card printing pattern from the internet to be cut and colored as a valentine card. Another option would be for the children to  choose a valentine clip art from the internet that will be placed in a word processing document as a holiday message.
