✈️ Celebrate Valentine’s Day with a virtual field trip. This Valentine’s Day digital resource activity for kindergarten and 1st grade takes students on an adventure through time to learn about St. Valentine and the history of Valentine’s Day. Then, students learn about the geography, food, culture, and landmarks of Rome. Students finally learn about writing letters and sending their own love notes on Valentine’s Day. This virtual field trip comes with three digital resource options, so it’s perfect for any classroom (see below). It contains custom videos, links, images, reading passages, exercises, writing activities, and more.

⚡ This Valentine’s Day Virtual Field Trip Digital Resource comes in the following interactive formats:

• BRAND NEW! MagiCore WebLink Digital Resource – MagiCore WebLink resources integrate browser-based technology with proven learning strategies to keep kids engaged and learning. This interactive format contains elements like voiceovers, animation, embedded videos, and self-correcting drag-and-drop activities that are impossible in Google and other commonly used formats. If you used a MagiCore Webscape, then you know how amazing these resources are. Once you try a MagiCore WebLink activity, you’ll never look at Google Slides the same way. CLICK HERE to try it for yourself!

• Google Slides & Seesaw Formats – These interactive formats are perfect for any classroom with device access. Slides are interactive and can be used as a fun and engaging exercise within the classroom or remotely. Both formats can be set up to track user responses for teacher review.

⭐️This resource integrates a variety of primary level and emergent reading skills. Students watch videos and read small blurbs to help them complete drag and drop activities while learning about Valentine’s Day, Rome, and writing letters.

*Please note: This resource includes links to YouTube videos, so ensure you and your students have access to YouTube before purchasing. Although great care has been taken to ensure all content is appropriate for the stated grade levels, each classroom is unique and it is recommended that teachers review all content prior to use. I recommend embedding the videos to avoid ads and other content that may be inappropriate. Instructions for embedding the videos are included and it should only take a few minutes. Also, keep in mind that any links to third-party content may be changed or removed by the content owner. All links are reviewed regularly; however, if you find a broken link, please let me know so I can update the resource accordingly.

✏️ Interactive Activities – Integrated drag and drop, short response, and other activities make these interactive slides fun and engaging while students learn meaningful content and practice skills.
