Arghhh! Ahoy mateys! We indulged in some pirate play today, which also presented itself with some skill acquisition opportunities! Firstly, after reading the fun book below we drew our own treasure maps. Drawing the "X's" to mark the spot where the treasure is buried is also a good way to cross the midline! We painted "gold nuggets" for our treasure and engaged in lots of cooperative dramatic play which is super great for language development and, of course, social skills... Hazel, as well as Isaac are writing their full names! AND another special name: MOM. Above, it was fun to wash the rocks before we painted them and below we counted our gold coins. The children discovered that more gold coins were buried in the rice!
