We Looked for A Leprechaun!

Today after our specials time, the students came back to a room full of footprints, coins, glitter, and leprechaun work books!  What a blast!
We hunted all over the school searching but ended up finding a pot of treasures for us instead!  Here’s a HOJILLION pictures of it!

…it was so crazy and fun!  Tomorrow we are making the leprechaun craft! If you want the Looking for a Leprechaun Lessons just click HERE!

And I also have to show you what happened to me today.  I will confess I am a Seuss “grinch”.  I have never celebrated Dr. Seuss or really gotten into his books at all UNTIL TODAY…. (due to my occupation I have always stuffed this guilt down deep.  This blog post is setting me free ya’ll.  Free from Seuss Guilt.

We went to our library lesson and it was Seuss-TASTIC.  I may be first in line to see The Lorax tomorrow because I have total Seuss fever now.  I finally get it.  Plus our librarian can get you excited about anything…I mean ANYTHING.  If she did library lessons on bikini waxes and mammograms then I would be first in line to do those things too.  Maybe she should do library lessons on making dinners with a good attitude.  Putting the dishes away and folding the laundry.   She is just incredible.  So here’s a few pictures taken today during my Seuss life changing moment.

      Phew! I didn't want to scroll down after you gave your librarian additional options for lessons. I knew there was a picture—-but you had me worried.

      Thank you for your sweet comment today.
      I was crying in the middle of math after reading it (Just skip over the part about READING it during math… ummmm… they had a test and… I had to do attendance… well… you know).

      Writing that post made me feel better. Now I just need to think it through. Even if I fell off the earth, I would crawl to a computer (heehee) and leave a comment for you–can't miss out on genius boy or hair changes…

      Thanks, Reagan. I appreciated your kind words.

      You're too cute for me…I can't stand it!!!! You know what? While we don't have curriculum cops, per say – the resources we use to teach our curriculum are SOOOOOO flippin' involved and time consuming I don't have the time to do ALL the cute stuff I see…I do Seuss…but not nearly as much as other people do and I'm sooooooo jealous. I'm glad you're a born again Seuss girl….

      Oh my, what a good actress you are! I didn't know about your "Seuss-o-phobia" until I read your post. I would say that I'm sorry for sticking a Seuss hat on your head today, but I'm not!! Hmmm, maybe we should take the kids and see The Lorax together…

      I love the leprechaun hunt! I will have to add some of your ideas to the one we do. Our Leprechaun kicks off our plant unit when we come back from Spring Break because as everyone knows leprechauns eat plants because green things give them even more special powers! =)

      Thank you so much for the sweet words you left when you stopped by my blog earlier this week. My heart hurts for your little one and the loss in the fire. Our little Firsties sometimes have such heavy burdens to carry. I know you help lessen the burden by making learning so much fun…and sharing some Seuss love too! =)
