I'm a Survivor, I'm not Gonna Give Up!

Woohoo, I made it to Spring Break! It seemed like it would never get here, what with an early morning meeting, last minute report card snafus, leprechaun visits and another attack of the Underwear Bandit, but I made it! At 3:33 I was so tempted to open the doors and set my little gang of Spring Fever Crazed maniacs free 12 minutes early, but luckily our custodian dropped by at that point and gave me a pep talk to assure me I could outlast my little devils angels and I held out until 3:45.
I am relaxing with a plate of carbs and some fermented grapes, so I won't blog too much, but I do want to share our leprechaun traps because some of my kiddos really put a lot of effort into them!







At the end of the day we were going to have some chocolate chip cookies:

But we stepped out of the room for a moment and when we came back that tricky leprechaun had opened the package and done this:
We had some other leprechaun fun, but I'm all blogged out for tonight - off to a nice hot bath! Have a great night and I'd love it if you'd rustle up a response and tell me if any of those tricky leprechauns played a trick on your class today!

How did you do that to the cookies?! I love it. Those traps are amazing. We had a blast in my room too.

I miss doing the leprechaun traps. We have done them every year until this year. Our new principal said we couldn't do them. However, we left gold out hoping they will come to our room over the weekend.
I love reading your blog!

It looks like you earned your spring break, for sure! Such adorable leprechaun traps and I love the green cookies! Enjoy your vacation!

My teaching partner baked some homemade chocolate chip cookies and dyed them green, so we just bought an extra pack each and exchanged them beforehand with the storebought ones. Then I had another teacher quickly switch the packages when we were out of the room :)
