To make:

You can print a black line of a pot of gold with a student’s name printed on it and a rainbow coming off to the side. Students will color the pot and the rainbow.

Then the students will cut their images of the gold and arrange the letters in order of their name. 

They will glue down the coins above the pot of gold in name order.

If you do not want students to color in the rainbow, you can cut out a pot of gold and pre-printed rainbow for students to paste. They will follow the same steps with the coins.
