CELEBRATING ST. PATRICK'S DAY WITH OUR IRISH TEACHER!!!! MARCH 17TH 2016

March 17th of every year is a National Holiday in Ireland. Irish people celebrate their patron saint, St. Patrick. Patrick brought Christianity to numerous Irish people. A tradition on this day is to wear the colour Green and to display a shamrock. The shamrock is the national emblem of Ireland. It is a three leafed plant, that St.Patrick used to explain the Blessed Trinity to the Irish race.

Do you know of any other National Holidays around the world?

We used the above video as an inspiration for our Narrative Writing. We watched the initial part of the video clip and created, collaboratively, a narrative with a Bold Beginning, a Mighty Middle and an Excellent Ending.
