Graphing the Green
 
What color comes to mind when you think of St. Patrick's Day?  Green of course!  So celebrate the holiday and the color by completing the activity below.
 
YOU WILL NEED
-Large sheet of bulleting board paper
-A 1/2 sheet of shamrock stickers for each student
 
PREPARE THE LARGE SHEET OF B-BOARD:
-draw a line down the middle
-make nine columns going across
-on the left side of the line write the following questions in each box.
1.  I am wearing green.
2.  The house I live in is green.
3.  My favorite color is green.
4.  I like green beans.
5.  My family has a green car.
6.  I have a green pencil.
7.  My winter coat is green.
8.  I like green Jell-O.
9.  I have used a green crayon.
10. I know a word that rimes with green.
 
HOW IT WORKS:
1.)  Have a volunteer read #1.
2.)  Invite students up to place a sticker in the column next to #1  if it applies.
3.)  Repeat 1-2 for all the questions.
4.)  Have students use the graph to answer questions during a class discussion.
