I love the online game,Text Twist, and the old classic game, Boggle. So here’s my holiday version of those two games on a paper you can hand to a student or a group of students. After everyone’s had time to write down new words, you can share your words and play Scattergories (another word game I love), where words repeated among the class get no points.

I’m always up for new activities to do with spelling/vocab words. Here’s a new one I’ve come up with for kids to do this year…
1. write each word on its own shamrock
2. lightly color the shamrocks (unless you printed the worksheet on green paper)
3. cut out and glue on to construction paper (also draw a leprechaun, pot of gold, rainbow, etc.) or turn into a necklace, etc… just do something crafty with it.

This fun St. Patrick’s Day writing activity uses the basic parts of speech (nouns, verbs, adjectives) to help kids create a character analysis for a leprechaun. This could easily lead to a story, poem, etc. about the leprechaun.
