February means books for Valentine’s Day, and I have some really, really sweet ones to share.
Throughout this post, you’ll find Amazon Affiliate links. This means I receive a small commission if you purchase something through that link, at no extra cost to you, that helps keep my blog running and helps fund giveaways!
The bonus is that so many books for Valentine’s Day include themes of kindness, understanding, and respect.
And if we’re being really honest, my students can use all the kindness reminders.

Writing & Craft
Whenever we have the opportunity to do themed/creative writing, I’m definitely all in, and of course, Valentine’s Day is no exception.
“I Love You a Bot” was born from my students’ love of robots, and the need to get them excited about writing.
Students created a 4-square graphic organizer in their writer’s notebooks. They needed to come up with a person (parent/sibling/friend/teacher/etc.) to write to.
In each square, they wrote a reason for loving that person.
Then, students wrote their rough draft, edited, revised, and then their published copy became the body of the robot.
