There are so many fun and engaging activities for you to use with your students to celebrate St Patrick’s Day. In this blog post today I’m going to share with you some of my student’s favourite activities that we do to celebrate.
1. Art Therapy
We LOVE art therapy sessions in our class, and when there are holidays or celebrations coming up, we theme our sessions for them! This week we done a St Patrick’s Day art therapy session and the children LOVED it! Read all about it here.
2. Leprechaun Crime Scene
Your students will love this St Patrick’s Day crime scene activity pack and the naughty leprechaun who has messed up the classroom! With this pack you will be able to create a crime scene where one of the leprechauns have messed up the classroom! Find out more here.
3. Rainbow Cupcakes
Remember when I said St Patrick’s Day was one of my favourite holidays to celebrate in the classroom? It’s not just for crafts – it’s for the baking opportunities too! We do mix it up each week in our class and alternate between sweet and savoury baking. But, we could not miss out on these adorable rainbow cupcakes for St Patrick’s Day! Read all about them here.
4. Free Verb Adapted Book
This free download includes 1 sentence building / adapted book where students have to look at the image of what the leprechaun is doing, then select the correct symbol to finish the sentence and match the image. Find it here.
