ST PATRICK`S DAY

Yes, St Patrick`s Day is coming - 17th MARCH -and so let me leave you with this class activity. I think students will enjoy it!
I`m going to try it!

St. Patrick's Pictionary Supplies:Chalkboard
Chalk
Eraser
Hat
Papers with St. Patrick's day objects written on them
Timer

How To Play:Put papers with St. Patrick's Day objects written on them into hat. Divide children into two groups. Flip a coin to see which team goes first. Invite a child from the playing team to approach the chalkboard, draw a slip of paper, and read it to themselves. On your mark, the child should then draw the object in hopes that his/her team members will guess the object on their paper. If the team guesses correctly, before time runs out, they score a point. If the playing team does not guess correctly the other team has five seconds to try to come up with the correct answer. If they guess correctly they score a point and it is their turn to play.

This game can be simplified for young players utilizing words such as: shamrock, gold, pot. Make more difficult for older players by using short phrases: lucky Irish, pot of gold, etc.

Have fun!
