Saint Patrick's Day

On Friday, we talked a little bit about Saint Patrick's Day in class since we will still be on spring break when the holiday rolls around. We started out by watching a short video from United Streaming on the history of the holiday. Then, we pulled up pebblego.com to do some research. We reviewed some of the facts we learned, then each student put together this cute little leprechaun craft and wrote three facts they learned about the holiday.


For writing, we talked about one of the symbols of the holiday: the shamrock (also known as a clover). We talked about how most of them have 3 leaves, but when you find one with four leaves it is lucky! We created these cute 4 leaf clovers and wrote about something that makes each one of us lucky.


I hope everyone has a fun and safe spring break! Enjoy the time at home and I'll see everyone in a week! :)
