Who Ever Heard of Red Shamrocks? Submitted by: Lou Coakley [Lou
is a teacher at Riverside Elementary, Evans, Georgia] Students
will see how the mind tricks the eye. What You Need: - 1 five
inch RED shamrock (cut a shamrock from red paper) - 2 pieces of
white construction paper What You Do: - Post the 2 pieces of
white paper at eye level. - On one of the pieces of white
construction paper paste the red shamrock. - Ask students to
take turns staring at the red shamrock for 30 seconds. - Then
have them stare at the plain white paper. - Later discuss what
happened - A green shamrock appeared on the white paper -
Explain to students that since red is the complementary color of
green, staring at something red will cause you to see a green
after image, not a Leprechaun trick after all! ►More St.
