Need a St. Patrick's Day activity to save your own sanity and keep your students engaged with 3-digit subtraction with regrouping practice at the same time? We all do! This St. Patrick's Day math craft activity will have your students practicing 3-digit subtraction and creating an adorable leprechaun craft at the same time, perfect for hallway display or to send home as a St. Patrick's Day treat.

Watch your students enjoy the charm of St. Patrick's Day while they choose their answer to class-building questions such as "Would you rather catch a leprechaun or find a pot of gold?" and then solve a 3-digit subtraction problem. The answer to the 3-digit subtraction problem will provide students with directions for adding certain types and numbers of decorations to their leprechaun math craft.

Your students will love sharing their answers to the St. Patrick's Day themed would-you-rather questions and watching how their leprechaun crafts take shape. They’ll be engaged in 3-digit subtraction with regrouping practice and having FUN at the same time.

You’ll love having intentional 3-digit subtraction practice during the hectic St. Patrick's Day days, and the added bonus of a cute craft to display in the hallways as evidence of their 3-digit subtraction learning! To top it off, it’s quick and easy to prep!
