Happy March!

Wow!  What a weather-filled March it has been.  It is difficult to believe that just about a week ago there was still snow on the ground in some places and now it is getting up into the 70's!  I hope that you all had a great Spring Break and are excited about coming back to school tomorrow.  I usually have a Happy Pi Day (March 14) or "Beware the ides of March (March 15) post, but I definitely can't let a St. Patrick's Day (March 17) pass without posting something (since I am 1/4 Irish!)!  Here are a couple of fun "story starters" and I will add some other activities tomorrow.

Use these suggestions to write a short story:

1.  What would you do with a pot of gold?

2.  Write a story about the day everything that you touched turned green!

3.  What would you do if you were a leprechaun?  Where would you hide your gold?

4.  "As I was looking for a pot of gold at the end of a rainbow, I was surprised to find..."

5.   How would you go about finding the end of a rainbow?

6.   Write about something that makes you feel lucky.
