      Hi Arpine,

      Here are some activities for you:

      create a Valentine's day card on animoto or photopeach

      Recreate a scene in www.domogoanimate.com between 2 famous couples historical or fictional like Romeo and Juliet or from a movie that you like.

      Do a research project about famous historical couples and present it through glogster or prezi

      Search the origin of the Valentine's Day and create a short movie using moviemaker or a poster without tech just with pictures and colourful pens and text.

      Write a poem

      Dear Arpinesahakyan,

       

       I'm going to give them a poem about love and then ask them to write their own.

      Dear Arpine,

      I think it's opportunity to act a role play of famous love story!

      Preparing good script, customs and music and act it infront all the other students at school.

      I will think about that too!

      Good luck and happy valentineday
