St. Patrick's Day worksheet with interactive activities for learning about Irish culture and traditions.

Let’s go step by step to solve each part of the worksheet.

Part 1: Drag and drop

We need to match each picture with the correct label from the list below.

Pictures (left to right):

1. A green shamrock with sparkles → This is a shamrock
2. Map of Ireland colored green, white, orange → This is Ireland
3. Golden harp with shamrocks → This is a harp
4. Map of USA with American flag colors → This is the United States
5. Man in blue robe with cross, pointing → This is St. Patrick
6. Leprechaun sitting on pot of gold → This is a leprechaun

Now match them to the labels:

- UNITED STATES → Picture #4
- LEPRECHAUN → Picture #6
- SHAMROCK → Picture #1
- IRELAND → Picture #2
- HARP → Picture #3
- ST. PATRICK → Picture #5

✔ So the correct order for the boxes under the pictures is:
Shamrock, Ireland, Harp, United States, St. Patrick, Leprechaun

Wait — let’s double-check the order of the pictures again:

Picture 1: Shamrock → Label: SHAMROCK
Picture 2: Ireland map → Label: IRELAND
Picture 3: Harp → Label: HARP
Picture 4: USA map → Label: UNITED STATES
Picture 5: St. Patrick → Label: ST. PATRICK
Picture 6: Leprechaun → Label: LEPRECHAUN

Yes! That matches perfectly.

Part 2: True or false?

Let’s read each sentence and decide if it’s true or false based on what we know about St. Patrick’s Day and Irish culture.

1. “St. Patrick is the national holiday of the United States.”
→ False. St. Patrick’s Day is an Irish holiday, not a U.S. national holiday. The U.S. has its own holidays like Independence Day.

2. “St. Patrick’s day is celebrated on the 17th of May”
→ False. It’s celebrated on March 17, not May.

3. “St. Patrick was born in the fourth century”
→ True. He was born around 385 AD, which is the 4th century.

4. “On St. Patrick’s day, people usually wear green clothes.”
→ True. Wearing green is a big tradition!

5. “The traditional food on St. Patrick’s is fish and chips.”
→ False. Traditional foods are things like corned beef and cabbage, soda bread, or Irish stew — not fish and chips (that’s more British).

6. “The traditional symbols are the shamrock and the guitar…”
→ False. Shamrock is correct, but the other main symbol is the harp, not the guitar.

7. “Leprechauns usually live in the forest.”
→ True (in stories!). They’re often shown hiding in forests or near rainbows.

8. “Leprechauns are friendly fairies.”
→ False. In folklore, they’re tricky and mischievous — not always friendly!

9. “The Irish flag is green, white and orange.”
→ True. Green for Catholics, orange for Protestants, white for peace between them.

So answers:

1. False
2. False
3. True
4. True
5. False
6. False
7. True
8. False
9. True

Part 3: Join with arrows

We have the Irish flag and four phrases on the left, and four explanations on the right.

Left side:

- This is → should connect to “the Irish flag”
- The green colour → represents the South of Ireland (Catholics)
- The white colour → represents the peace
- The orange colour → represents the North of Ireland (Protestants)

Right side:

- represents the peace. → matches white
- represents the North of Ireland. → matches orange
- represents the South of Ireland. → matches green
- the Irish flag. → matches “This is”

So connections:

“This is” → “the Irish flag”
“The green colour” → “represents the South of Ireland”
“The white colour” → “represents the peace”
“The orange colour” → “represents the North of Ireland”

✔ All matched correctly.
