St. Patrick's Day

In Malaysia, we do not celebrate St. Patrick's day but I think it is always an advantage for the children to learn about others cultures and festival. I've mounted photos of shamrock, St. Patrick and leprechaun, with short sentences, and had it laminated. I had it then pasted on the wall ( eye level) for the children to see and read. This way children not only able to relate based on the stories that we told them but also to improve their words vocabulary.  We decorated the bulletin board with shamrock, rainbow and a pot of gold with the labels. We had the children's foot print on the wall and labelled it "leprechaun's footprint". We also made leprechaun from a paper plate. Happy St. Patty's day to all.
