This resource includes:
- teacher guide that walks you through implementing the resource
- flip book printables (If I Were a Leprechaun cover (2 versions), I Would Live…, I Would Spend Each Day…, I Would Avoid Traps by…, and 5 Ways I Would Cause Mischief)
- 2 page toppers (leprechaun coloring pages and shamrock coloring page)
- lined paper version of each flip book printable (these optional pages include lines and thematic clipart for each of the flip book tabbed props. If you want to make this an even more detailed St. Patrick’s Day writing activity you can have your students write about each of the prompts and simply stack it underneath its matching prompt in the flip book.)
