St. Patrick's Day!

Today we had a leprechaun come and visit our classroom!  All week we have been looking for him and some of the kids even think they may have seen him earlier in the week.  We have been reading lots of stories about St. Patrick's Day and how tricky leprechauns are.  When we came inside from recess, we saw foot prints on the carpet.  He even turned over chairs and threw things around the room. The leprechaun also left us a note that sent us on a scavenger hunt for his treasure.    The clues took us all around the school from the flag pole to the bus loop and finally onto our playground.    At the end of our hunt we found his pot full of yummy chocolate kisses!  No gold, darn it!  The kiddos were so excited to run from clue to clue!  I hope it was memorable and fun for them!  Happy St. Patrick's Day!
