Every year the Leprechaun visits our classroom and wreaks havoc. He typically leaves a lot of mischievous green footprints and a sprinkle of glitter marking his trail. This year I found some amazing confetti and glitter in the Target Dollar Spot! Check these out & cross your fingers that Target has then again next year!
The kids wonder in that morning feeling confusion, excitement, and then utter disbelief that a Leprechaun could make such a big mess. And even more mind boggling, is that he left it for them to clean up. Chairs are over turned, green buckets are dumped, books with green covers are strewn around, and there's green writing on the board. The leprechaun typically leaves a note apologizing for his quick departure & the mess. Luckily for the kiddos, he always leave a treat- typically pencils or stickers!
I also love leaving my students a chocolate coin with a note letting them know how lucky I feel to be their teacher! These are available as a FREEBIE in my TPT store. There are versions for teammates & coworkers included too!
