Map making

This afternoon the children created their own treasure maps. Then they scrunched, ripped and stained them to give them a look of being old. The look fantastic!

Finding our loot

The class quickly worked out that the map was a map of the school. We also found some directions for how to get to the treasure. Sneaking carefully, we managed to follow the directions and find our lost chests. That will teach those nasty pirates!

A treasure map

Whilst searching for the treasure the class were able to find a treasure map. Perhaps it will lead us to the lost treasure?
We are going to check and see if we can work out where the map leads us.

A letter from Captain Smellybeard

We arrived at school today to find our two toy chests missing. We then found a letter from some pirates boasting that they had pinched our 'treasure'. The children are now searching everywhere to see if we can find the map that reveals where thy have buried our loot!

Independent writing

It's lovely to see the children all writing independently in their jotters during the register. Today they were writing about what they got up to at the weekend.
