Today, we celebrate St. Patrick’s Day—a holiday rich in history and tradition. 🍀 Fun fact: St. Patrick wasn’t actually Irish! He was born in Roman Britain and later became a key figure in Ireland’s culture. This holiday is a great chance to explore culture, history, and global traditions with students. Whether you’re creating green crafts, learning Irish history, or talking about celebrations like the Chicago River turning green, there’s so much to discover. Lá Fhéile Pádraig Sona Duit! (Happy St. Patrick’s Day!) 🍀
