Product Details

Ready for a science-themed St. Patrick's Day resource that isn't a leprechaun trap? You're in luck - this Leprechaun Science Shenanigans activity has it all - genetics, evolution, nature of science, art, poetry, and so much fun! Your students will love our twist on this St. Patrick's Day STEAM lesson and you'll love your classroom decor for this fun Irish holiday.

In this lesson, students determine the traits of a leprechaun, create and hide him, and then hunt him for his gold. This activity is SO easy to implement, with multiple ways to use it - it's perfect for students of all ages! With two templates to choose from, you can easily modify this lesson for your varied learners, providing a fun experience for everyone. Differentiate by reducing the depth at which you cover each concept, or extend this lesson by challenging students to further analyze their data by creating graphs and calculating percentages.

This lesson is intended to be completed over two days and can be used in many different teaching environments, whether you teach a single class, or have several preps in a day. Invite your colleague to buy a license and swap classrooms for a true "hunt" experience.
