Over at Bullseye’s web site they’ve added two new classes to their online program and one of them is actually free! The Art of Kiln Glass is the free class. You must check it out…the other class talks about kiln types. That’s a member class. If you want to learn about kiln forming you should sign up for their classes online. It’s a great source of information and their adding classes all the time.

St. Patrick’s Day Math Activities
I have written a lot of St. Patrick’s Day posts over the years (see for example, St. Patrick’s Day STEM, leprechaun traps, class party games, shamrock learning activities and printables, just to name a few) but it looks like I’ve never done a St. Patrick’s Day math post, or it’s been long enough that I have no memory of it.
Adding holiday content to your everyday learning is lots of fun and there are a lot of ways to add shamrocks, leprechauns and pots of gold to your math activities in the classroom.
Worksheets for Preschoolers has a simple count and circle the number coloring sheet for kiddos learning to count and match the count to the numeral. Made by Teachers has a free (login required) math worksheet with one number listed that asks kids to write the number that comes before and after. Kindergarten Worksheets and Games has a couple of hundreds chart coloring sheets.
Older kids can practice multiplication facts and color in shamrocks and other St. Patrick’s Day symbols with these printables from The Curriculum Corner. XOXO Erin Smith has similar color by division sheets.
Your Schoolhouse has a variety of St. Patrick’s Day learning printables including on where symbols are used for math problems so kids can figure out what the symbols stand for and one with shapes on a coordinate grid.
If you’re OK with using food in the classroom, these activities from Homeschool Preschool use Lucky Charms cereal for sorting, counting and graphing projects.
There’s a fun looking project on area and perimeter with a St. Patrick’s Day twist at Ashleigh’s Education Journey. If you scroll down in the post you can see it, but I can find the printable shown in her Teachers Pay Teachers store. Still, you could do something similar by having the kids design a leprechaun town either by telling them what they need to include and how big each place needs to be or letting them design and then having them figure out the area from there.
