St. Patrick’s Day is right around the corner, so why not have some fun in your homeschool activities with one of our favorite St Patricks Day Activities … Lucky Charms Graph? Or our St Patrick’s Day Writing Prompts?
This one today is edible, just like the recent Oreo Phases of the Moon homeschool activity.
We did the Lucky Charm graph set for Math on St. Patrick’s Day. My students said it was the best Math class they ever had!
Catherine
I’m usually a non-sugar cereal girl, like Wheat Chex or Corn Chex. But when I was a girl, I loved Lucky Charms. Lucky Charms are still a temptation for me. In fact, I had to put the box away when I was doing this activity.
Why Lucky Charms?
St Patrick’s Day activities means shamrocks & leprechauns. Whether you believe the legends, it’s still fun to do some school activities. Here’s one of my favorites … the Lucky Charms Graphing Activity
You’ll need a box of Lucky Charms or a generic brand of that cereal. Also, gather a measuring cup, paper plate, crayons and graph. Measure the same amount of Lucky Charms for each student. If you are working with fractions, I recommend using 1/2, 2/3, or 3/4 cup – nothing more than 1 cup of cereal.
Pour the Lucky Charms on a paper plate so it is easier to find the shapes. You’ll have to decide if the students should include broken pieces. Pick out the shapes in your cereal. Place them above the shape on the bar graph.
For some reason, Lucky Charms has some extra white marshmallow shapes. We used the white & yellow ones for stars since they look like a shooting star. You may find actual stars, but we didn’t. You might have different results than me.
Count the number of each shape on your bar graph. Write that number below each bar. We used a crayon that matched the color of the marshmallow. Color each bar to indicate the number of shapes you found. Use the same color as the marshmallow, if you like.
Use your Lucky Charms graph to answer questions on the St Patrick’s Day Activity Guide. The Lucky Charms Graph is included in the RESOURCES SECTION of our St. Patrick’s Day FREE Activity Guide. (Leave your email below to get the guide)
Our guide also includes St. Patrick’s Day Printables, as well as science, history, writing, geography, art & cooking activities. You’ll also find excellent videos (3-5min) to watch as a family.
The pages above are great for elementary kids. My granddaughter is in Kindergarten and still learning some of these Math concepts, like greater or less than.
To get your free copy of the guide, enter your first name and primary email below and we will email the guide to you. You’ll have lots more St Patricks Day activities for your homeschool. The GRAPH is linked in the resources at the end of the guide.
You might like to read one of these books to learn more about St. Patrick. We love both of these authors & highly recommend either of them for your family.

Please send guide for Lucky Charms 🙂
Marchelle,
The guide is automatically emailed to you when you enter your email at the end of the post. Thanks for your interest.
I would like a copy of the St. Patrick’s Day Activity Guide. Thank you for your generosity! Jayne
Jayne, Sorry for any confusion. The guide is automatically emailed to you when you enter your email at the end of the post. Thanks for your interest.
my guide didn’t have the graph either, only a picture of the graph with the charms already on it. You can google “lucky charms graph” and print from another website
You should have received 2 pdfs. One is the activity guide. The other is the graph.
Great idea! Can’t wait to try it out.
I had fun doing this. My 19yo son was begging to open the Lucky Charms early, but I wanted to take pictures before the box was open. I’ll be saving this idea for grandkids.
I’d love a copy of the St Pat’s day guide! Lucky Charms indeed!
Thanks!
Jennifer,
Sorry for any confusion. The guide is automatically emailed to you when you enter your email at the end of the post. Thanks for your interest.
Thanks!
You are welcome!
What a shame, I have never seen anything like Lucky Charms in NZ. Maybe we could use Fruit Loops and sort them by colour.
Lisa, I think Fruit Loops would work too.
Love this activity! Can’t wait to do it with my class.
Glad you found it!
Thank you for this guide. We just had a St. Patrick’s Day party today and I will forward this to the members of the group. In a couple weeks we are doing the phases of the moon. You have great ideas!
You are welcome. If you don’t use it this year, you can file it for next year’s party.
Thanks!
we are just starting a new unit on graphing, my students will love this!!!
I’m sure they will love it, especially if they get to eat their graph afterwards.
Thanks for sharing a great idea!
YOu are welcome. Enjoy!
Kids will love this!
They sure will. Most kids like to learn when they don’t know they are learning
