St. Patrick's Day Activities for Spanish

I'm a sucker for any holiday. The opportunity to dress up, the chance to make a day a teensy more whimsical than usual? Sign me up! So, I always make it a point to create lessons that still teach Spanish vocabulary and often times culture. Last year I created a rainbow themed lesson activity that was primarily geared for younger ages and focused on colors. It's still a great lesson that I will probably use again this year. I wanted to create a lesson that was a bit more focused on vocabulary for the holiday and even give it a dose of culture so I created a new lesson that teaches key words to describe the holiday and even teaches about the connection between Mexico and St. Patrick's Day! 

​You can still download my rainbow themed lesson for FREE on TpT here or by clicking the image below. You can buy my new lesson by clicking here or the image below.

Teach the colors of the rainbow in Spanish or English with this fun lesson including flashcards, a relay race game, class conversation activity and color by number. This lesson is intended for grades K-5 with modified lesson plans for K-1 included but could be used with older students that do not yet know their colors (in English or Spanish) or to review them.

Teach your students why we celebrate St. Patrick's Day, vocabulary in Spanish related to the celebration and the connection between this holiday and Mexico with this full lesson including a detailed lesson plan, presentation, large flash cards, a scavenger hunt activity and additional activity sheets.

I hope you enjoy my lessons! Thanks for visiting!
