St. Patrick's Day Leprechaun Hunt!

So I am pretty lucky- My sister works with a girl from Ireland and she has her very own pet LEPRECHAUN! She agreed to let Mr. Leprechaun visit our classroom on Wednesday! I was so excited when he came to school early in the morning- but when when I went to the teacher's lounge to make some copies he must have escaped! I returned to the classroom to find a mess of cubes on the floor with a riddle left by Mr. Leprechaun! So when the kids came to class, we decided we had to go look for him! We followed the clues left behind to classrooms all around the school. There were even little green footprints leading to the clues! We finally were led back to our class and found the last clue with a pot of delicious treasure! 

In the afternoon we came back to our classroom from recess to find green glitter leading into the bathroom and green water in the toilet! We kept spotting clues, but could never find that tricky leprechaun! 

I tried to capture good pictures along the way- but I had some very excited and eager first graders that picked up clues and footprints before I had a chance! Hope you enjoy the video and Happy St. Patrick's Day!
