It's Wonderful Wednesday!  

 

We hope you had a super day yesterday. It was lovely to have a chat to some of you yesterday when you came to collect your home learning packs.

 

There are lots of fun pirate themed activities for you to do in the pack.

 

Today's piratey activities are ...

 

Shake Your Treasure!

 

• Ready to cut some shapes with the Swashbuckle crew?

 

• Sing along and shake your treasure; collect your gold and jewels and shake them all around.

Making a telescope

 

• If you Google 'making a pirate telescope', there are lots of ideas for making ones with moving parts and that painted and decorated in wonderful ways.

 

• But ...    you could just provide a cardboard tube and let imagination take over!

 

 

If you are feeling creative ...

 

• CBeebies has lots of pirate themed craft ideas to try if you have the resources.
