About these st. patrick's day bingo cards
St. Patrick's Day bingo is a classroom favorite in March. The list keeps to folklore and festival words, with nothing about pubs or drinking, so it is ready for school as it is.
Many teachers pair the game with a leprechaun trap project. Add your class's own words, like the names of the leprechauns students invented, to make the cards personal.

Ways to play
Gold coin markers
Chocolate gold coins or yellow counters make perfect markers for a pot-of-gold theme.
Rainbow round
Instead of a straight line, the first player to mark one square in every column wins. It forces players across the whole rainbow of the card.
Folklore clues
Read a clue like "a tiny shoemaker who hides gold" and let students work out the square.
