HOW TO CATCH A LEPRECHAUN BOOK ACTIVITIES AND TEACHING IDEAS

How to Catch a Leprechaun is a book about some children who devise plans and various traps to try and trick the leprechaun, hoping to catch him for his pot of gold! I love how this book sparks creativity and plan-making, while being FUN :)

Your students will be engaged with this read aloud, and these corresponding activities will help them dig deeper in their literacy learning. This book companion unit provides you with lesson ideas, reading activities, and a craft, for Kindergarten and First Grade.

This book study is packed with activities that will help your students work on story elements, character traits, making text to self connections, story retell, vocabulary, making inferences, giving opinions and advice, problem and solution, author's purpose, reading comprehension, and much more!

The book study unit can be used for whole class learning, during small group guided reading time, as individual student work, or as part of a book club. Copy a pack for each student and you're ready to go!
