Happy March, blog friends!
The month of St. Patrick's Day and March Madness. I'll be cheering for the Indiana Hoosiers in the NCAA tourney, so I thought it was time to share my Hoosier spirit with a banner change! And also time to share a few more shamrocks - one for sale and one for free!
First up is Shamrock Categories, which is available for purchase in my TpT store:

The month of St. Patrick's Day and March Madness. I'll be cheering for the Indiana Hoosiers in the NCAA tourney, so I thought it was time to share my Hoosier spirit with a banner change! And also time to share a few more shamrocks - one for sale and one for free!
First up is Shamrock Categories, which is available for purchase in my TpT store:
The same shamrocks as the Word Families activity,
but this time they've turned categorical!
It's aligned to this Common Core standard:
CCSS.ELA-Literacy.L.1.5a: Sort words into categories (e.g., colors, clothing) to gain a sense of the concepts the categories represent.
Here are the Shamrock Templates to cut out:
And the leaves to cut out and match with
their shamrock category:
And a recording sheet for added reinforcement.
Targets: pets, colors, seasons, punctuation marks, furniture, letters, insects, writing utensils, things you can read, clothing, and flowers
I had a group last Monday work on the Shamrock Categories activity and then they filled out this recording sheet today. I was excited how well they recalled the items we had gone over the week before!
And next up, Shamrock Synonyms. I'm posting this one up as a freebie.
Same concept, new targets.
Check it outhere!
Hope you enjoy the shamrocks in your speech rooms and come visit again soon!
Sincerely,
Mrs. Ludwig
