Ireland By Angela

There's room for a nice fairy tale about leprechauns and pots of gold here, and there are some great print out and color in pictures on the web for that too. Making green carboard hats or searching the classroom for a pot

of gold you have hidden (with chocolate coins in?) is fun too. If you are looking for something more realistic you could tell a short tale about the people coming to America on the pilgrim ships to have a better life, and there are a lot of ship pictures to color too. There are also tales about St. Patrick of course. Lucky clover cookies are fun. If your class isn't too big you can

make some at home and bring them in. The kids will have fun icing them.

There's bound to be a way to incorporate a violin or a tin whistle if you're more musically minded. Even tiny kids have great fun with whistles.

All I can think of for now.. good luck!
