Leprechauns visit 1st grade! 3/17/2010

Everyone arrived at school today and found green water in the water cooler and in the toilet. However, there was no other evidence of leprechauns! The children kept predicting all morning when they might show up. They even thought I was the "leprechaun!" We left the room several times during the day and heard of visits to other classrooms... but our room was safe! When we returned from lunch and recess... what a mess! Tiny green footprints all over the floor, leprechaun dust, and hidden messages! I was with the children the whole time so they finally agreed it couldn't be me! One message we found told us to find treats where we store our back packs. Yeah, Lucky Charms!

The messages were written "all crazy" and someone remembered last year we had to read them in a mirror. Off to the mirror we went!
This message told us to find "magic moo juice" or milk and mix it with the powder we found. We mixed it and had a delicious green treat.


The white powder turned green!



Yummy... everyone tried our treat.




Then we had fun experimenting with rainbow colors in milk. The colors would run from the dish soap and mix to make new colors. So cool!
