The truth is, your older teenage and adult students don’t want to hear about leprechauns or pots of gold for St. Patrick’s Day anymore… But don’t worry! Here’s a lesson to celebrate Ireland featuring the award-winning Netflix show Derry Girls.

With its sharp wit and distinctive dark humor, Derry Girls is set in 1990s Northern Ireland, making it the perfect show to engage your students with Irish culture and history—and why not? Have a good laugh together!

Includes exercises on vocabulary, pronunciation, listening and speaking (+ answer key)

⚠️ A quick heads-up: While Derry Girls is hilarious, it contains strong language and explicit humor, which might not be suitable for all students. Make sure you’re comfortable with this before using it in class!
