Potato Feast



Hannah's class has been very busy preparing for St. Patrick's Day. For homework last week, they all built leprechaun traps. They made special hats to wear, and they had a potato feast this morning. I went along to help, and the kids had a GREAT time. Hannah's teacher planned a baked potato bar, so the kids all got to have a baked potato, and then they did a Venn diagram of who liked it. This afternoon, the kids are going to make a graph showing how many kids like the various kinds of potatoes--what a fun way to do math.

Hannah is decked out, head to toe in green today--and does she have the bling on, or WHAT?! Hannah also was the kid (first-ever in all the years Ms. C. has been doing it) that discovered the leprechaun in someone's trap. We think that the leprechaun is a shape shifter though, because Hannah thought it looked like a hamster. Someone else thought it looked like a guinea pig. I thought it looked like a mouse. Silly, sneaky leaprechaun!

A potato bar is a great idea... I'll have to do that next year with my students.
Hannah looks adorable in her little leprechaun hat (Paige made one too, but groaned when I asked to take a picture)...

Hannah is so stylin'. And Maree, looked how decked out you are in the green. I don't even own a green shirt--how ironic, eh?
