A Pirate's Life For Me!

Our pirate unit had us shivering with delight!


Our literacy center featured,
How I Became A Pirate and Pirates Go To School.



The children also wrote "non-fiction" facts about pirates.



In math we worked on subtraction using treasure coins and 
we worked on addition facts to build our own pirate ship.


In art we constructed these fierce looking 
pirates that were in need of a shave!


We also created these fabulous pirates!


"Shiver me timber"

We walked the plank!  
(I forgot to take pictures of this but the children LOVED it!)
AND
we went on a treasure hunt!




Here's the "BOOTY"
as in PIRATE BOOTY!



We listened to Pirate music and ended our week with a fun pirate snack.
The Grave's Family provided these awesome cupcakes.


and T. Alicia provided
BLOODY SKELETON ICE CUBES!



It was a perfectly, perfect ending to our busy Mother's Day week.
Next week:
Farm Unit!
