Party tonight

The timing is a bit tight but you might be able to pull it together for a Valentines family party this evening.
Holiday story play [electronic resource] : costumes, cooking, music, and more, preK-4 is available as an e-book online. Chapter 6 is for Valentines Day. There are patterns for a King, Queen and Knave puppet to print out and color. There are directions for heart shaped sandwiches. There are suggestions for writing your Valentines story.

The holiday activity book is aimed at classroom teachers in grades pre-kindergarten through fourth grade. What is your home but a little classroom, even if your students are over the age of 9?
To get to the book (and the chapter on Valentines Day)
.. go to the CTC catalog
... search for Valentines Day
.....Holiday story play was the second book on the search list
...click on the URL
....don't click on the cover of the book. My pet peeve with this version of the Ebsco e-books is clicking on the cover does not open the book. Though, you'd think it would.
....select the e-book full text link on the left.
....select the magnifying glass on the right at the top of the Tool bar
....type in Valentines. The links take you to the pages where that word is used

You do need a login to use the Ebsco e-books off campus. You may ask your CTC librarian for the login or you may get the passwords by logging into the catalog with your student ID and your Banner pin. Once you're logged in- select My Account, then select Off Campus Access to Library Resources, scroll down to Electronic Books.
