Our youngest students read the story Pete the Cat: Chase the Leprechaun. They also completed a shamrock with pictures of things that make them feel lucky.
The 5th graders made a poster full of shamrocks. In each shamrock they had to write some reasons why they are lucky.
In Dublin, the capital of Ireland, there's a famous statue of Molly Malone. Molly Malone is a character from a traditional song. The song tells Molly's story. Molly is a girl who sells fresh seafood from a wheelbarrow in Dublin.
Later in the song, Molly dies of a fever. People miss her, but they think her ghost continues to walk in the streets of Dublin, crying Cockles and mussels, alive, alive, oh!
The song is one of the most famous and popular songs in Ireland. Almost everyone can sing it.
Here you have a video of the song of Molly Malone:
