Year 3 began their new topic by learning 'How to be a Pirate'. There was the learning of new pirate words, the singing of sea shanties, a quiz to find out what they already knew about pirates, some map reading and pirate maths.
In the afternoon, the pirates practised tying knots, making pirate maps (for themselves and the PTA) sketching, and puzzles. After reading about Jolly Rogers, they formed teams to make their own flag designs by using natural materials found round the school grounds. From the photos, you'll see what a great job they did!
Great fun was had by all AND you all looked fantastic! Welcome aboard, me hearties. We've got some amazing adventures planned for you this term. Signed ... Captain Teach.
