“ A person with good luck would be able to play something just by stroking the strings.“

This is a great story for students to think about what they are grateful for and appreciative for as well. They can use their imagination to tell their own story as well.

Fiona's Luck displays beautiful portraits and illustrations that bring the characters and fantasy elements come to live. This story uses a lot of imagination and shows how Fiona is so appreciative for the things that she has in life.

Fiona's Luck is a wonderfully fun MF picture book. With the disappearance of luck in Ireland, Fiona finds she may be the only person left to fix it. Fiona sets on a mission to trap the leprechauns. She has to convince them to return the luck to her country! Through many games and tricks, Fiona using her wits to trick the King into returning all the luck to Ireland. Eventually, the lands produce good crop again, and her people are saved.

MFlowers As a fun, light, Storytelling picture book, I think you could turn it into an opportunity for some fun classroom activities. https://jodi-durgin.mykajabi.com/fiona's-luck-activities This url will lead you to a multitude of activities you can use in the classroom to further your students understanding of the text. For 3-5th graders, I think your focus should be on vocabulary. There are many words your students should focus on to better understand 4y
MFlowers When you focus on the vocabulary, i.e. “apt,“ then you are fulfilling UDL principles 2.1 (clarify vocab and symbols) & 2.4 (promote understanding across languages). Also, you can accomplish EL strategy 5 (teach technical vocabulary supporting key concepts). When you discuss the vocabulary, you present an opportunity to teach the new words to your EL students and your English native speaking students. That way, everyone in the classroom learns. 4y
DrSpalding Trapping leprechauns is something that happens in the many kindergarten classes around St. Patrick‘s Day! What a fun book to read aloud prior to an event like that. I like the idea of storytelling as well. I see that you have noted third through fifth graders but I believe this could be used in the primary grades as well. Teaching vocabulary as you know will aid comprehension. 4y
