My Lucky Day

"The harder I work, the luckier I get."

Sam Goldwyn

Next week is St. Patrick's Day.  Simple shapes make a leprechaun.  

Green and orange paint with corks, cookie cutters or fingers! 

"Robot, play Irish folk music."  Music is needed to set the mood.  Here are some more ideas:

He's a Lucky Man

Yesterday our MWF classes learned how to draw a leprechaun.  Teachers give simple step by step directions using lines and shapes.

There's a Rainbow Above You

Our MWF students can color rainbows during center time.  Follow the directions and press the easy button.

Lucky for You

We love exploring other countries and cultures with our preschoolers.  This week we 'travel' to Ireland. 

A bin of green in the art center makes colorful collages.

This leprechaun should be an easy catch when students listen to teacher directions.



During center time students may color the Irish flag and press 'the easy button.'

Orange and green paint in the art center.  Aren't we lucky?

St. Patrick's Day 2019

We love 'travelling' with our preschoolers and learning how other children around the world live.  This week we 'visited' Ireland.

A bin of green in the art center makes colorful collages.

This leprechaun will be easy to catch! We love creating crafts at MCP and our students are such good listeners.

Teachers give directions using shapes and letters and students are able to draw a leprechaun.



Lots of green and orange paint!





Fun Food Friday had students sorting, counting and creating patterns with Lucky Charms cereal!

What a fun week!  We are so lucky to have your child at MCP!  Happy St. Patrick's Day!

The End of the Rainbow

May your sky be filled with rainbows,

May no dark clouds hide the view...

May your joys in life be many and

your troubles all be few.

St. Patrick's Day 2015

Today our MWF preK classes will 'travel' to Ireland.  When we 'travel' at school, it gives us an opportunity to talk about not only the country but the families and children.  We try to decide if the children are at school, eating supper or sleeping.  We will look at maps and see that Ireland is an island (we have discussed this concept with England, Australia and Hawaii, too).  Teachers will attempt to talk with an Irish accent (it's so bad...so sorry).  We will make a leprechaun and also sort, count and create pattern with Lucky Charms cereal. For more information on St. Patrick's Day activities search under the label 'St. Pat's'.

The Paintin' of the Green

The colors of Ireland will be on the art table for the MWF classes.
