I find it hard to believe but it seems to be true that in all these years I\u2019ve never written about St. George\u2019s Day, celebrated on April 23. St. George is the patron saint of England, who was believed to have lived around the 3rd century. He\u2019s usually depicted as a knight, and it\u2019s thought he was in the Roman Army.\u00a0<\/p>\n

He\u2019s associated with dragons because, according to legend, a kingdom was being terrorized by a dragon, and George offered to help if the king would allow his people to be baptized. The king agreed and after a long battle, George killed the dragon. You can learn more about his story and find some good printables to use in the classroom at Twinkl<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Twinkl also has this cute printable story spinner<\/a>, as well as a knight mask craft and more fun crafts and activities.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Teaching Ideas<\/a> has a fun St. George\u2019s Day activity pack including a printable banner with the St. George\u2019s flag (white background with a red cross), word search, coloring pages and more. Don\u2019t miss the retelling of St. George\u2019s story in Lego embedded in the post; it\u2019s spectacular.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Grab some St. George\u2019s Day coloring sheets from Hodgepodge Days<\/a>, which includes the one of St. George shown here, a flag, design your own shield and St. George and the dragon.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Kiddy Charts<\/a> has a great printable activity book that includes bingo cards, a word search, acrostic poem worksheet, a mindmap for writing the story and a worksheet to write the story on.\u00a0<\/p>\n

And of course you\u2019ll want some crafts, too! I love the St. George shadow puppets from My Baba<\/a>, though the post just says to draw the characters you could probably trace them from the images in the blog post or find a castle, dragon, horse and knight clip art to use.\u00a0<\/p>\n

I love this simple wooden spoon dragon from The Gingerbread House<\/a>, and these gorgeous paper plate dragons from Pink Stripey Socks<\/a>. This St. George made out of a spoon and craft foam is really cute, too. Get the tutorial from Baker Ross<\/a>.<\/p>\n
