Description
This leprechaun mini-unit makes St. Patrick’s Day VERY easy to plan for, VERY fun for students, and VERY easy to integrate themed-learning into the day. It is designed for both teachers who want a flowing, motivating unit for a day of learning and fun AND for teachers who are looking for some extra resources to add to what they already do for St. Patrick’s Day.
