As we found the rainbows, we talked about what kind of words we kept finding on the cards. We knew they were all....
COMPOUND WORDS
After finding all of the rainbows, we opened the TOP SECRET envelope.
Inside were riddle clues.
We got into our investigation groups and each team came and got a riddle to try and solve. The kiddos were able to look at the compound words we discovered on our RAINBOW HUNT to infer which compound word it could be.
When the mission was complete and all of the riddles were solved, we got to open the final envelope. Inside was a poem from Lucky.
Lucky the Leprechaun told us he left a birthday present for us...and it was a compound word treat. We brainstormed what the present could be. He also told us in the poem that the gift would be found in a place that was also a compound word. We thought it could be a classroom, the bathroom (ewwwww) or....
THE PLAYGROUND
When we went out onto the playground we found this.
Inside were rainbow cupcakes and Leprechaun necklaces.
You cannot see the red layer but it was there.
Lucky the Leprechaun also left us some compound word activities to work on when we come back from Spring Break. He also told us to be looking when we come back because he just might hide a pot of gold for us to find! =)
Here is a closer look at what is in the fun and engaging packet...
