Here is a fun memory-style game to print for young kids on St. Patrick's Day. For common core cultural literacy, students are expected to recognize common symbols and to know with what they are associated. The symbols used in this matching game are associated with Ireland and Saint Patrick's Day--the leprechaun's pot of gold, the Celtic Christian cross, the shamrock, the leprechaun's bowler hat and pipe, the Celtic tree of life, etc.
This free printable game familiarizes youngsters with these Irish symbols while helping kids to hone their memory and concentration skills. Click here to print the set of ten pairs of cards. Cut them apart, jumble them up, turn them upside down, and play just like the Memory game you've bought in stores. |
