Friendship’s Valentine Gift - Writing Prompt

Let’s be real—friendship is the best Valentine’s Day gift! Flowers wilt, chocolates mysteriously disappear, but a good friend? They’re always there (even when they steal your fries). This fun and meaningful activity helps students reflect on why friendship is more valuable than any store-bought gift.

In this two-part activity, students will:
✍️ Write about why friendship is the ultimate Valentine’s Day gift. Maybe it’s because friends make them laugh, cheer them up, or always share their last piece of gum.
🎨 Draw a picture to go with their writing. It could be a drawing of their best friend, a friendship moment, or even a "Friendship Award" for their favorite pal.

Ways to Use This Activity:

• A writing center activity or morning warm-up.

• A kindness-themed class discussion starter.

• A great addition to a Valentine’s Day bulletin board.

Why You’ll Love It:

✅ Encourages students to think about what makes friendships special.
✅ Strengthens writing and creativity skills.
✅ No sugar overload—just feel-good vibes!

At the end of the day, a true friend is way better than a greeting card.
