Shiver Me Timbers...

Holy pirates Batman! We had a great time last week reading pirate books. There are some really fun (and non-violent) pirate picture books. Check out the list below for what we read! We review predicting as a comprehension skill (some of these book really lend themselves to prediction!).



Pirate Treasure Hunt! by Jan Peck is a "call and response" book - very similar to We're Going on a Bear Hunt. My kiddos loved it and we read it at least 5 times!

We completed lots of fun activities too! I thought you might like to share in the Pirate fun - so here are some treasures for you. :)

For math, we played Pirate Roll and Cover - complete with gold coins!
