Many people will look for St. Patrick’s Day themed lessons, activities, and free printable worksheets. That’s why we created these St. Patrick’s Day Symmetry activities for your family to get festive.

Symmetry activities are a great way to practice math skills and to get creative. Your child must look at the picture that’s been cut into two and use logic to fill in the missing half.

Symmetry pages use both sides of the brain. Left brain thinkers use their logical deductive reasoning skills. Right brain thinkers use their creativity and artistic skills. This is a well-rounded activity for all because it uses both.

And best of all, it’s free to download.

Or, if you have more than one child in a group, you can give a different image to each child. Then they can share their unique drawings with each other.  

When you download the activity, you will get a bundle of 12 images (two versions of each design), with designs including:

Why Use the St. Patrick’s Day Symmetry Pages?

What is a symmetry activity page? A symmetry activity page takes an image from any topic and cuts the image perfectly in half.  A line is drawn directly down the center of the design creating a mirror image on both the right and left side.

Symmetry Pages are an excellent way to make a new topic like St. Patrick’s Day relevant and engaging to kids of all ages.

• If you’re teaching about St. Patrick’s Day, kids will see images to set a foundation for the holiday.
• If you’re teaching an art lesson, kids will be engaged by using their creativity to finish the other mirror half of the image.
• If you’re teaching a math lesson, kids will learn about equal parts or planes across an axis.

How to Use the St. Patrick’s Day Symmetry Pages in Your Homeschool

Are you interested in these St. Patrick’s Day Symmetry Pages but not sure how to use them in your homeschool lesson? Check out these lesson ideas:

• Art Lesson: Use the worksheets to share different mediums of art. Some kids might paint the other half, some kids might use crayons, and some kids might make a collage with magazine clippings. Kids can be unique in their creations.

• Math Lesson: Use the worksheets to show how mirror images are objects cut in half. Teach fractions by showing a whole image and then a half image. Or, teach how objects can rotate around an axis on a plane.

• History Lesson: Teach the holiday by sharing about each object’s importance to St. Patrick’s Day. Show historical images or documents about the origin of each symmetry object. Allow kids to share their creation.
• Bellringer Warm Up: Start your day or lesson with a simple instruction to fill in the other half of one of the images. Kids can begin to wonder what they will be learning about as they draw the mystery picture. This creates relevancy and interest.
