2026 Week 27 Shamrocks and Shenanigans!

 Well, those Leprechauns were tricky again this year!

💚💚💚

First of all, they spilled Lucky Charms on all the tables...

and green glitter all over the floor...
and mixed up our shoes....
and finally, they left us 100 coins and a 100 chart to put them on!





We had a fun time catching up on Tuesday due to the snow storm! I did get to bake a little so I shared the fun with the k kids...


We created and painted leprechauns...

 

We journaled about what we would do if we caught a leprechaun...




And we finished our lucky shamrocks...all in one day!











We played a fun game on Thursday where the kids stood behind us and said "hi, _____(our name)" and we had to guess who it was!  What a hoot!



Centers on Wednesday included:
Building CVC words with Ms. Mohs...


Playdo brain break, St Paddy's Day style...
