    This St. Patrick's Day themed Word Search is aimed at the higher level ESL student and ABE student.  It prints out onto 1 sheet of paper.  Enlarge it in the poster making machine, put it on the wall in the classroom, and let students work on it together. Or cut it into nine pages and make a competition out of it.  Great fun!
