Tom O'Malley the Leprechaun visits the classroom

Each year around St. Patrick's Day Tom O'Malley - a small, redheaded leprechaun visits the classroom and messes things up. And in the past I have let him get away with it - However, the last few years we have attempted to trap him. (I need to give him a piece of my mind!). Last year was unsuccessful and this year we failed yet again! He always leaves us a nice note, mocking our attempts. But, it wasn't for a lack of ingenuity mind you - My classroom came up with some pretty good traps. So - for your enjoyment - here are the traps - and the messed up classroom!

The Luck of the Irish has yet to be with me on St. Patrick's Day! Regardless of the fact that my great, great, great, great, a lot more greats - came from there (according to Ancestry.com ) :)
