Valentine's Day is fast approaching. Here is a fun February yet challenging activity which uses heart rebus puzzles. It is called
Hearts and Valentines. Hearts and Valentines is a
FREE two page handout that features four heart rebus puzzles which represent familiar expressions that contain the word "heart". (e.g. "A Heart of Gold") Each illustration uses a picture or symbol to represent a word or phrase and requires that the students use logic and reasoning skills to solve the four rebus puzzles. (idioms)
During the month of February, put up one heart illustration as a student focus activity, OR, if you choose, display all of them up at the same time. Students are to figure out which heart expression each heart picture represents. Below are four examples from the resource. Can you figure out the answers?
I have stumped you? Perhaps you just don't have the
heart to do it or maybe your
heart simply isn't in it. If you give up and want to do know the answers, you'll them on the page entitled Answers to Problems on my blog
Go Figure. (Look at the bar at the top of this blog post.)
As you have discovered, this can be a fun, but also very challenging Valentine's Day activity! If you would like more information about the
full, 26 rebus puzzle resource, just click the title under the pictures on your right. And.... Happy Valentine's Day from the bottom of my heart!
