Holidays are always a blast to celebrate in the classroom! Even if you don’t have a big party, you can still do holiday themed activities with your students. Since St. Patrick’s Day is coming up, I have a fun Leprechaun themed activity to practice writing CVC words! This Leprechaun CVC Words Write the Room activity is a fun way to get children up and moving around the room.
*Pair this with our St. Patrick’s Day Centers & Activities
Leprechaun CVC Words Write the Room
Write the Room activities are a great way to get your students up and moving.
Students will walk around the room looking for the picture cards and write the answer down on their recording sheet. You can chose to do this as a whole group activity or as a reading center activity with just a few students at a time.
This activity focuses on sounding out and spelling CVC words. Before you start, make sure to hang up all of the picture cards in different spots in the classroom.
Give each student a clipboard or hard covered book and a recording sheet. I like to give students fun writing tools for this type of activity.
Students will walk around the room looking for the cards with the little Leprechauns on them. Once they find a card, they look at the picture.
They sound out the CVC word, then write the word next to the matching number on the leprechaun. Once they find all 12 cards and write all the words down, they are finished!

Here’s a tip if you do Write the Room as a whole group activity:
I suggest that you have a “rule” that no more than 2 students can be at a card at a time. This will eliminate any pushing or shoving or the entire class at one card. I simply tell my students that if there are already 2 students at a card, they can either stand back and wait patiently, or find another card.
This freebie includes 12 colorful Leprechaun Write the Room cards, a recording sheet, and an answer key.
It is the perfect addition to your St. Patrick’s Day learning in your classroom!
