C is for CREATIVE

This week we worked on a creative project. We started by learning a little about leprechauns. In Irish folklore, there are many stories about leprechauns and fairies. The fairies love to dance and the leprechauns work to make and mend the fairies' shoes. The leprechauns are paid with gold pieces. We also learned that we have to keep a close watch on these little guys because they can disappear in the blink of an eye! The creative task set before the students was to create a leprechaun trap. They used the shoeboxes that they brought from home. They were provided with lots of materials like pipe cleaners, craft pom poms, lots of shimmery sparkling things, fabric, etc. The ACES' imaginations were in full force to create contraptions that would lure and trap those silly leprechauns! We hope you enjoy the pictures and watch for more to come!!
