March Writing and Crafts

After reading The Cat in the Hat by Dr. Seuss, the children wrote about what would happen if 

Thing 1 or Thing 2 visited their house and we made a.....

 

 ...Thing 1 or Thing 2!  Thank you to Mr. Barr for making patterns for us to use! 

We read the story The Luckiest Leprechaun by Justine Korman.   It's a tale of friendship between a leprechaun and a happy dog.  Then we shared when we felt lucky with our partners and classmates.  Students then completed the sentence stem, I feel lucky when.... and made a leprechaun, too. 

I feel lucky when I see Mrs. Dryzal because she is the best and she is nice.  :0)

 

 

I feel lucky when I see Mrs. Dryzal because I like her.

St. Patrick's Day

 

 

The students shared treats and encouragement with their reading teachers to spread some cheer!  Behind the tags are mini bags of Skittles candies.  The printable is available here.

 

 

 

 We read The Luckiest Leprechaun by Justine Korman.  It's an engaging tale about friendship.

 

 Then we wrote about when we feel lucky and created a Leprechaun, which we named with our own Irish name.  I am Mrs. O'Dryzal today! 

 

 This activity was in my file from when I taught first 3 years ago....you can get the patterns here.

 

 

Lucky Leprechaun left us a letter, along with some "Magic Powder." 

 

We added milk to our "Magic Powder" and then....

 

While we sang the chant, the powder turned green!  After letting it set for 5 minutes....we had our own Leprechaun Snack!
