These St. Patrick's Day centers can be used as a St. Patrick's Day Party or St. Patrick's Day themed math and literacy centers.
Take the stress out of planning a St. Patrick's Day that is magical and educational with these St. Patrick's Day Escape Room activities! This will be a St. Patrick's Day your students never forget!
Set the stage with a note:
St. Patrick’s Day,
Is finally here!
The leprechaun,
Has disappeared!
Before he left,
He hid the gold.
There was no one,
That he told.
He made himself,
A great disguise.
If you find him,
You get his prize!
After the students complete each challenge, they will receive a clue from the culprit. A suspect will be eliminated after each challenge. Once all of the St. Patrick's Day centers have been completed, they will have eliminated all but one suspect!
