Luck o' the Irish




Happy St. Patrick's Day to you! We had a lot of fun St. Patrick's day fun and I wanted to share it all with you! The above image is our display board of little leprechauns (their handprint cutout on cardstock with a little green construction paper hat on top; I drew their faces with a black sharpie). This was fun and the parents all thought their little faces were adorable, but the true hit of the display was the cloud rainbows. 

The cloud read: "If I found a pot of gold and a leprechaun gave me 6 wishes I would wish for a rainbow of things" (this worked out great because we also had been learning about rainbows in class). Then on each rainbow colour we wrote down the wish that the students would ask for and boy-oh-boy there were some funny ones! The kids absolutely loved sharing it with their parents too.
We teachers also captured a leprechaun early in the morning before the students arrived and placed him in a box to show them later...but he magically escaped and left us clues to find his hidden treasure. Our simple treasure hunt had our kids reeling with excitement and when they eventually found his pot of gold (a painted black cottage cheese container with a black pipe cleaner as a handle filled with cuties) they were overjoyed!
