Instructional Ideas

• Send home in a packet for out-of-class practice

Classroom Considerations

• Has a picture of a leprechaun because he's flipping a coin; the story is not about leprechauns 
• Some of the sentences and questions are a little complex; consider explaining what the question is asking

Pros

• Worksheet includes sections to detail each character's personalities, and two additional reading comprehension questions

Cons

• Type is very small, and could be difficult for some kids to read
