St. Patrick's Day
St. Patrick's day is a holiday that was celebrated many thousands of years ago. We celebrate it because of a man named Saint Patrick. According to'' https://www.history.com/topics/st-patricks-day/history-of-st-patricks-day" Saint Patrick is the national apostle of Ireland. He was born in Roman, Britain, but was kidnapped and taken to Ireland as a slave at sixteen. He then later escaped and became a bishop. He was also credited for bringing Christianity to his people. But what does wearing green, four leaf clovers, and leprechauns have to do with it. The people of Ireland thought that wearing green made them invisible to leprechauns, so they wouldn't pinch them. We pinch people when they aren't wearing green, to remind them the leprechaun will get them. Four leaf clovers also known as shamrocks have been the symbol of Ireland since the 18th century. A leprechaun is a fairy passed down from generations of Irish oral storytelling. All these things are big parts of Ireland and it is important that they are included. In the end, St. Patrick's day is a day to remember Saint Patrick and the Irish traditionBy: Will Warner
Great Writing Will!! I really like how you showed where you got your info from. I only saw one thing you could fix and that's the sentence, "But were does wearing green, four leaf clovers, and leprechauns have to do with it" you forgot to put a question mark. But other than that Great Job!
