February 14 is Valentines Day.

Bookflix has a pairing and a lesson plan that accompanies it.  Did you know that Curriculum Correlations can be found at the very bottom of the lesson?

Why not connect Math to Valentines Day?  Search Educator Tools for "valentine" and the results include Math worksheets. Here is an example. https://www.infohio.org/document-library/item/knovation/?evlCode=11795080575252204YNSlI8

February is Black History Month.

World Book has a Webquest for Black History Month.  The Webquest can be found in all versions of World Book by going to the Educator Tools in the upper right corner.  But, all World Book Webquests can also be found in INFOhio's Educator Tools.

Random Acts of Kindness Week is February 13-19.

Searching Bookflix for "kindness" will result in 3 book pairings.

Searching Highlights for "kindness" will result in 14 titles.  Six of those are Readers+ which means that speaking, listening, and thinking activities are found along with a quiz.

And finally, the Winter Olympics start on February 4.  

Searching Capstone Interactive for "olympics" will result in four titles for Olympics and Science.

World Book has a Webquest.

Search Educator Tools for "olympics."  Narrow by grade level.  Here is an example of a resource found when narrowing by 1st grade.
