How to Catch a Leprechaun – I Am the Leprechaun (Speaking Activity)
This ESL speaking activity is part of the Book Companions series
based on the children’s book How to Catch a Leprechaun.
Students look at the picture, imagine they are the leprechaun, and
complete the sentences aloud. This role-play task encourages
creativity while practising simple sentence structure and St. Patrick’s Day
vocabulary in context.
What students practise
Speaking: role-play and speaking in the first person
Grammar: present continuous and simple sentence patterns
Vocabulary: St. Patrick’s Day words (leprechaun, gold, trap, rainbow)
Fluency: completing sentence starters smoothly
Designed for A1–A2 ESL learners, this activity works perfectly
as part of a full How to Catch a Leprechaun Book Companion lesson
for St. Patrick’s Day.
