Valentine Themed Ideas
Word Hearts - This site creates a heart-shaped word cloud. Would be great to brainstorm a list of things kids love or adjectives that mean love.
Valentine Word Drop - players must unscramble the words before they hit the bottom of the screen.
Heart Sudoku
My Money Valentine - Game is played like the online lemonade stand, but with an amorous twist
Starfall Connecting Words - elementary students can learn about connecting words while creating their own Valentines

Heart Writing - Don't let the foreign language throw you off when you enter the site. Simply type a paragraph into the box and choose "layout text" to create your own heart. Counting Candy Hearts - reinforces number corelation in lower elementary

Surface Area
I like to start lessons with a brainpop video or youtube video/song. Sometimes you get some good ones, other times they are a little cheesy, but still memorable, like this one:
I thought it might be fun to do something different than just drawing a picture of the sides. We pulled out some paint and 3-dimensional shapes and stamped the sides instead!
When the posters dried (we used a hair dryer borrowed from the nurse), we started measuring and calculating!

Wii in the Classroom
As soon as we started playing I realized some of the games had objectives that I had been teaching in class!Perspectives:
Ordering Numbers:
I had the bright idea to unplug my Wii and take it to school! I think it was the most engaged my class of 35 students had been all year! Since then, I make a point to have "Wii day" a couple of times a year and the kids could not be more excited!I have looked on Amazon and found a couple of other educational Wii games, but haven't bought any yet. Maybe future grant?
ThinkSMART appears to have games best for high school:
Science Papa lets you explore chemistry, biology, physics, and paleontology through science experiments.
Reader Rabbit has a couple of games for early elementary grades (I think I saw Pre-K through 3rd grade).
My Word Coach looks like it would be great for GT and high school classes, but may be a fun warm-up for a typical middle school classes too.
Jump Start advertises being great for ages 5-9.
As if you haven't seen this show! Upper elementary classes would love this:
We recently bought an XBox Kinect for our son and may have to start checking out games for that too! If you know any other games, please share!
