Did you know that the leprechaun has featured in Irish Folklore for over 1,000 years? In this one time class students will learn about this Leprechauns. We will learn what a leprechaun looks like, where they live, what they like to do, and how tricky a leprechaun can be. When we have become leprechaun experts, we will use this information to think of ways they could design a leprechaun trap that could catch a leprechaun. Students will explore a simple design process that will encourage them to use the ideas they have learned to design a trap to catch a leprechaun. Finally students will use their new leprechaun facts to help them solve a Leprechaun themed puzzle.
Learning Goals
Students will learn about Leprechauns and their role in Irish folklore. They will put these new facts into practice by designing a leprechaun trap for St Patrick's day. They will also work together to solve a puzzle, using their new knowledge.
Other Details
Supply List
Printouts for planning the leprechaun trap will be provided by the teacher. If your learner prefers to get 'hands on' rather than sketching a design, they are welcome to bring some supplies to class that they could use to begin their design. There may not be enough time in class to complete the design, but they are welcome to begin it. The puzzle details will also be provided by the teacher.
External Resources
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
