Thank you to everyone that has taken time off of work to come in and share a story and some time with the class. They have truly loved having people surprise them each afternoon following lunch! The stories have been terrific also! Thank you for sharing!
We have also been working on an engineering STEM challenge for science and social studies by designing and building leprechaun traps! They were quite attractive to the little green people (our visitor was Cindy, a girl and her three brothers). They had quite the time in our room last night tripping traps, taking gold, writing notes and leaving footprints all over the room. Not to mention that they also locked us out this morning from the classroom and had strung one long strand of green yarn ALL OVER the room! We had to cut it into pieces to get it all down!
Some found shoes left behind...I think the owl frightened one; and all found gold, new pencils and a rainbow Twizzler in place of the gold in their traps!
It was quite a morning! The class was soooo close to catching a leprechaun on the scavenger hunts they went on this afternoon, however, with a blink, they were gone and magically turned the promised gold into both Goldfish crackers and real Goldfish!!!
Yes, we now have 3 class pets...Charm, Lucky and Cindy.
Finally, a HUGE thank you to everyone for my surprise birthday party this week!!! The cake, flowers, cards and gifts were so thoughtful and beautiful!!! I love being 27!!! ;)
Have a safe and fabulous Spring Break!!!
