St. Patricks Day!


Today we are going to learn about St. Patrick's day! You may or may not heard something about this Day! What you are going to do is to read this information and then you're going to answer the questions below! ok..here you go..

Saint Patrick's Day

St. Patrick's Day is celebrated in the United States on March 17. It's neither a public holiday (we still have work and school) nor a serious holiday. It's just a fun holiday. Many Irish people have emigrated from Ireland to the United States over the last few centuries. They brought St. Patrick's Day with them. St. Patrick's Day is a serious religious holiday in Ireland, but it has been changed quite a bit in America.

Today in America people enjoy St. Patrick's Day by wearing green. In fact, if you don't wear at least one small green item, school children may pinch you. Probably the most common symbol for this holiday is the shamrock. Since the shamrock has three leaves, thousands of years ago St. Patrick (a religious leader) used it to teach the Irish people about the three parts of God. Today many people wear a shamrock design on St. Patrick's Day because it is supposed to bring good luck.

On this day many people also enjoy going to a pub and drinking beer. They tell jokes and have a good time. People who don't come from Ireland like to pretend they are Irish, too. Some cities hold parades or marathons. It's not a very big holiday, but it can be a fun one for the people who want to enjoy it. It is very different kind of celebration from St. Patrick's Day in Ireland.

Questions: "Answer T(true) or F(false)"

  1. Wearing a shamrock will bring you good luck? T or F
  2. People wear green on St. Patrick's day? T or F

What do you think...
