Reading
Today we are reading all about pirate equipment and weapons! We need to read the text carefully and find the answers that are written somewhere in the text.
Writing
It's story time. Now that we have completed our mission it is time for you to write your own story about finding some treasure. You story must include:
- arriving somewhere (could be another island)
- a problem (like the chest being covered with locks/a monster guarding it)
- a solution (finding the locks/ making a sleeping potion for the monster)
- getting the treasure.
Story examples
As our story is written in the past (as it has already happened) we need to make sure we are writing in past tense.
Things to remember:
- uncle -ed
- was, saw, looked, arrived, opened
