Leprechaun Gnomies Craft

First, you must check out my adorable craft that will brighten any bulletin board this March. I couldn’t resist creating these leprechaun gnomes. I had so much fun mixing and matching colors and fun scrapbook paper prints. This St Patrick’s Day craft provides multiple options for making unique leprechaun gnomes that your nuggets will love to make.

For some hands-on, creative group work you’re going to love this How to Catch a Leprechaun STEM challenge that incorporates reading comprehension with an exciting twist on leprechaun traps. Kids will go through the STEM process designing and building their own traps.

Virtual Leprechaun Trap

If you are teaching in a hybrid situation or just want a digital option that requires no supplies then you can check out my new Digital Leprechaun Trap or Leprechaun Home STEM which includes over 100 moveable STEM clipart pieces allowing students the next best thing to physically building their traps or homes. (I made sure to offer the option of a friendly leprechaun home to accommodate all student’s feelings.)

It can also be used as a pre-build activity to help your students work through the design process of their STEM lesson. This digital St. Patrick’s Day STEM activity bundle also includes multiple digital templates for how-to-writing that will help you differentiate among your multi-leveled writers. You will find expository examples, brainstorm spaces, and a variety of step-by-step graphic organizers.
