Cupid, doily, sweetheart
The easy list is short and warm: Cupid, Card, Dove, Kind. Medium, the opening sheet, holds Ribbon, Doily, Locket and Be mine. The hard list has the two- and three-word answers: Love letter, Secret admirer, Hugs and kisses.
Before the cards go out
Hand out a sheet while the class mailboxes fill up. Each press of New scramble jumbles Glitter and the rest a new way, so neighbors cannot copy.
- Be mine and Candy hearts go together: pupils can write their own two-word candy messages on the back.
