Queen of Hearts Valentine STEAM Party

We had a Queen of Hearts Valentine's Party in my class yesterday.  It was full of fun things.
So of course, I took the opportunity to dress a bit differently!

Here are each of our STEAM station activities...

Science
The kids learned about pollination through a cute little song.  They dissected parts of a carnation and when there was time, labeled the parts.  They discussed how seeds are made and enjoyed taking a peek inside something they hadn't before.

Engineering/Math
The kids built a house of cards with the challenge to make them 3 levels high...no one got to that high but a few got to 2 levels.

The kids built a rabbit tunnel with the game marble run.  Their challenge was to make the rabbit hole as fast as possible, so the White Rabbit would not be late.  They were timed and then had revision time to try to make it faster.

Art
The kids used fat needles and yarn for thread to sew cute little hearts (and sneak in some good fine motor work).  They were pretty little cards when they were finished.

I hope your Valentine's Parties were a good time.
Have a great weekend!
