Leprechauns in the Library?

This week, 1st graders had a chance to go on a leprechaun hunt in the library. They were split into groups and given sets of clues. The clues led them around the library, each clue leading to another clue, and ultimately, to a prize for each group! The leprechauns left behind stickers and dum-dum suckers in secret locations. 

This was a fun activity, but also a great way to use our reading and listening skills, problem solving strategies, and our navigation skills in the library. By doing the activity, students were able to remember where the fiction section is, where the nonfiction section is, where certain books with favorite characters are located, etc.
