We had a fun Pirate day on Friday! The children were able to dress up as a pirate (or in rainbow colors). We began our morning by meeting with the other first grade pirates on the playground. We played a game of “Pirate Pokey” and then the Captains (teachers) exchanged treasure maps. The children learned a little about map making, how to read a map and a few of the symbols associated with maps. This knowledge was put to good use as we followed our map to find the treasure hidden in the school. In the afternoon, we read, “How I became a Pirate” and practice finding our alphabet in a hidden map.
This week we will continue learning about nutrition as we walk to Ream’s grocery store. We also look forward to learning about the different types of books and how we can use them.
