Writing Pages
Get creative with St. Patrick’s Day writing. Students can write about what they would want to find at the end of the rainbow, a time they felt lucky, or what might happen on a day that everyone wore green to school. After students have drafted and edited, have them copy their final draft onto a lined St. Patrick’s Day writing page.

Acrostic Poems
March is a great month to study poetry in general, so have students create acrostic poems to start or end a spring poetry unit.
It turns out a shamrock is a perfect graphic organizer! Use these shamrock writing pages to help students organize fun facts about St. Patrick’s Day or a writing passage about why they are lucky.
This writing paper is perfect for younger students. It has lines to support good letter formation as they write about what might happen if a leprechaun came to school or their plan for a great St. Patrick’s Day feast.

Small Shamrocks
These pages of small shamrocks are perfect for bulletin board decorating, or counting and math activities.
Students can decorate these large shamrocks as a cover for their St. Patrick’s Day writing. Add some whimsy to poetry by having students write limericks about something they love. Or you can hang these large shamrocks from your ceiling to celebrate the season!
You don’t have to wait until March 17 to break out these worksheets. Use them for the whole month of March!
Put students in charge of planning a March-themed bulletin board. It will take them a few weeks to go through the planning and design process. They can use the shamrock cut-outs and writing paper for inspiration.
Create collections of shamrock- and St. Patrick’s Day–inspired writing. When students have a few writing pieces—a poem, narrative, and informational essay—they can bind them together into a book.
End March with a poetry slam. Challenge students to write acrostic poems using the acrostic poem worksheets, or write lyrical poems based on what they learn about St. Patrick’s Day. Then, host a poetry slam complete with green drinks and food.
Why Use the St. Patrick’s Day Worksheets?
Short answer? They’re fun! Long answer? They’re a great way to get students writing, planning, and engaging with topics all March long (and March can be a long month!). Use the worksheets to create a March theme like “We’re so lucky to learn together!” or “Learning is better than gold at the end of the rainbow!”
