Day Fifty Four of LOCKDOWN!

We started our day with our own exercise challenge, using Zachary's exercise cube

Then it was time for pirate day!

They enjoyed doing some pirate-themed colouring

Zachary did a pirate story comprehension

Zachary's coordinates activity

They enjoyed a fun game on the stairs in which by drawing cards the shark slowly tries to catch the pirates, while they try to escape!

Catching Ptolemy

They played a quiz game; if they got a question wrong then they had to 'walk the plank'!

Walking the plank

They built their own pirate ship out of chairs

They ate some 'hardtack' (seafarer's biscuits)

Enjoying his snack

They snuggled up under a rug to keep warm

We did a rhyming challenge, adding the rhyming words to the correct chest

Finding the rhyme

For our lunch, we made our own treasure islands out of dough

Decorating our treasure islands

Tahlia went for a long, thin island with a sandy beach in the south and volcano in the north

Most of them enjoyed eating their pizza...

...others were outraged that their cheese had melted

They enjoyed a tasty pirate ship afterwards

Enjoying their fruity ship

We were about to hunt for treasure, so Tahlia showed us which way to go on her treasure map

Reading the first clue for the treasure hunt

We had to gather herbs to take on our ship

Ptolemy found a clue!

They found treasure but it belonged to some Vikings, so they had to keep looking

Finding a clue in the crow's nest

We found a little girl's treasure but it wasn't what we were looking for, so we had to keep going!

Finally, they found the real treasure chest!

Watching Captain Pugwash while they ate their treasure

Making some pirate pictures with their stickers

Reading some of their pirate themed books
