Super sentences, yes no games, silly socks, pirate traps, shark attacks and Ipads afternoon.

Today we wrote our first sentences after learning our karate punctuation. We learnt sentences start with capital letters, finger spaces and full stops. Look how well we did. 

  During reading time we practised reading questions and deciding wether the answer was yes or no. 

  
Some of us enjoyed a relaxing read in the reading corner.
  Then we had chance to share our crazy socks with each other.  
  Outside we starting to make some Pirate traps using a collection of many different objects.  
We took our shark hats down from the display and pretended to be sharks again before we took them home. Some of us might have tried to form a shark attack on Miss Irwin but unfortunately she spotted us first! We don’t know how she realised! 

In the afternoon we got to spend practising our technology skills by playing with the iPads,
  
  Busythings and Beebots.  
   

Pirate Day!

Wow! What a day we’ve had! You won’t believe what happened!

Today was Pirate Day in class Jonah! We all came dressed as Pirates! The classroom had been transformed and Captain Irwin and Captain Kippen were talking funny!

We had cool costumes with hooks and swords, some of us had even grown beards overnight!

In the morning we did Pirate activities. We played in the Jonah Pearl, Pirate water, Pirate sand, Pirate playdoh and cleaned the Pirate chicks out. We made Pirate passports, earrings, telescopes, Pirate wedding dresses and pirate cakes! Even John the Rector came in for a spot of treasure spotting!

In the morning we realised some of our Class Jonah treasure had been stolen, we thought it might have been Captain Hook! After lunch we came back and Bobby found a map!

We looked at the map and thought the treasure was in the allotment, so off we went!

It turned out it wasn’t there, so we had another look! Then we saw John and he gave us a plank to use!

We then decided we should look up near the field and the trees!

But we couldn’t find it there either! Then Evie realised we’d gone past it on the path…after a long look Daniel saw a funny object hidden under leaves and branches it was a Treasure chest!

It was full of our treasure and Pirate Treasure! We took it down to the classroom to have a closer look.
In the afternoon we also played Pin the eyepatch on the Pirate and Pirate Bingo!

Then we walked the plank and ate our Pirate cakes and crisps!

We talked about our day…
Evie said the best thing was ‘everything what we did’, Jacob liked ‘the walking the plank’. Becky liked ‘finding the treasure’ and Lucas said Captain Irwin was the ‘best pirate Teacher ever!’. Captain Irwin obviously had nothing to do with writing that on the blog!! 🙂
We all had a great time! Now to go home and dream about finding more treasure.

Shiver me timbers!

Today we finished our Pirate ship role-play and starting playing in it!

If you wear the beard and the big hat you are the Captain.

We love being Pirates. This morning Miss Irwin found a black pouch with Pirate gold coins in it, which we used for our sharing in maths. Then we found some in the captains office in the treasure chest.

Pirate Day Wednesday 12th June

Pirate Day in Class Jonah on Wednesday the 12thJune.

On that day we will no longer be Recpetion Children in Class Jonah we will be Pirates sailing the deep blue sea in the search for treasure.

We are allowed to come dressed as Pirates for the whole day! So we can start getting our costumes ready!
