Watch out Lephrechauns!

Miranda had a most unusual homework assignment last week- make a Lephrechaun trap! All we had to go on was that Lephrechauns love shiny things and like to disobey signs. Here's what we came up with. First, the unsuspecting Lephrechaun steps on to the CD to pick up one of the pennies glued to it. Little does he know...
Down the hole he goes! Straight into the orange net !
All the first graders brought theirs on Friday and laid them out over the weekend. Somehow they all left their green sparkly footprints, but jump out of the traps and out the door. Miranda was disappointed because the teacher said that anyone that caught a Lephrechaun could keep it!
