St. Patrick’s Day mini unit
Today we deviated from the curriculum by doing a little mini-unit about St. Patrick. I found it at Learning Through History.
We watched a couple of videos, including this one:
We read about St. Patrick here and the History of St. Patrick’s Day here.
A quick little timeline for the History of St. Patrick’s Day can be read here.
We worked on this jigsaw puzzle. I got it in 6 minutes and GB took about 20 minutes. Just click the shamrock.
We also listened to a bit of Irish music featuring one of the most popular Irish groups, The Chieftains. This video has one of my all-time favorites, Alison Krausse, singing ‘Molly Ban.’
We also made some Irish Soda Bread for our dinner (without the raisins).
