This St. Patrick’s day math activity is so fun for students. When you bring in month themed activities into your classroom, it helps keep students interested and engaged.
St. Patrick’s Day Math Activity
For this St. Patrick’s Day math activity you print out the “Lucky to be in 2nd grade” page on green paper. Then print the math problems page on white paper. Students solve the math problems and then cut out the pieces. Then they glue the pieces onto the green page and it makes a cute shamrock. I like to have students display these on their memory books.
My students love these St. Patrick’s Day math activities!
There are even different versions included so it’s easy to differentiate to students’ needs. There addition facts 1-10, subtraction facts 1-10, addition and subtraction facts 1-10, addition facts 1-20, subtraction facts 1-20, addition and subtraction facts 1-20, 2-digit addition, 2 digit subtraction, 2-digit addition and subtraction.

St. Patrick’s Day Math Coloring Pages
Students tend to finish the St. Patrick’s day math activity at different times. So I like to have St. Patrick’s Day Math Coloring Pages for students to do as an early finisher activity. Students solve the math facts and then use the key to know what color to color each shamrock. There are multiple versions of these St. Patrick’s Day Math Coloring Pages so you can also differentiate with these.
Students Really enjoy these St. Patrick’s Day shamrock coloring pages!

St. Patrick’s Day Math Printables
I also have students complete St. Patrick’s Day math fact riddles during this time. Students solve the math facts and then use the key to find out the fun fact. My students love these and are always asking if I can print off more for them to take home. I like to set them out as fast finisher activities. But my favorite part about these St. Patrick’s Day math printables is that they are no prep. Just print and they are ready to go! Find these Math Fact Riddles here.
My students love these math I Spy worksheets so much they ask me to take some home to do.
Another ready to go St. Patrick’s Day math printable are my I-Spy Math Fact worksheets. Students search through the pictures to find certain equations. For example, students would search through the equations and find all the ones that make 10. For equations that don’t make 10, students write them on a recording sheet along with the answer. So they get lots of math fact practice. Find these March I-Spy Math Facts Worksheets here.
