Description
This St. Patrick's Day Bundle is jam packed with goodies to use all month long in March. It is over 200 pages of reading comprehension activities, writing, word work, crafts, and more. The two main stories, The Gingerbread Man and the Leprechaun Loose at School and Leprechaun on the Loose are used as the main focus stories. Both stories come with anchor charts that discuss characters, setting, main idea and sequencing the details. In addition, there are activities to compare and contrast the two stories. If you don't have a book, no worries. I have linked all books to a digital video read aloud. There are 5 other stories in this packet with activities provided too. In addition, you can make the leprechaun craft, St. Patrick's Day hat craft, or the St. Patrick's Day gnome craft.
