Description

Iconic Ireland

Get ready for an exciting adventure to Ireland without leaving your classroom!

This unit study is like a field trip that will take your students on a journey through the Emerald Isle. With full-color photographs of the actual places being discussed, your students will feel like they are right there in Ireland.

This unit includes enough activities to do one or two per day, in a one month period. You can shorten it or make it spread out longer. There is no specific order in which to do each project. This would be an excellent project to do during the month of March. However, it would be enjoyable at any time.
