Heart Paper Weaving
This is a perfect art lesson to complete around Valentines’ Day/ Although this lesson is called “Paper Weaving”, it is much easier to do the weaving if it is done with card. This activity can be a little “fiddly”, so it may be better to do it with pupils in middle/senior classes. This lesson could be done as part of the Construction Strand of the Visual Arts curriculum.
Valentines QR Code Trail
The purpose of this resource is to create a fun and active technology lesson with a Valentines’ Day theme, where pupils get out of their desks to complete the task. Suitable for middle/senior classes, all of the 26 questions on the trail relate to the celebration of Valentines.
