On Vacation!

Last Updated on June 29, 2015 by Laura

I am heading out of town tomorrow for the big town of Rapid City, SD! We are going to watch some Senators baseball and visit the in-laws, who are meeting us there. I promise to do Lesson 2 as soon as I return!!!
Books I’m bringing: Life on the Refrigerator Door, To Dance, The Homework Machine, and The Year of the Dog.

    ☘️ This St. Patrick’s Day Leprechaun Scavenger Hun ☘️ This St. Patrick’s Day Leprechaun Scavenger Hunt is one of my favorite low-prep ways to add movement and fun to busy spring days!

Hide the 10 leprechaun cards around your space, let students search and record their finds, and watch the excitement build. It’s simple, flexible, and perfect for:
✨ A movement break
✨ After book checkout
✨ Early finishers
✨ A reward activity
✨ Library or classroom centers

It keeps students engaged, encourages observation skills, and adds just the right amount of March fun to your day.

☘️ Pro tip: Print once, laminate, and use it year after year.
