Reception Talk Like a Pirate Day

Talk Like a Pirate Day Plank
 
Our Reception Class had great fun today celebrating ‘Talk like a Pirate Day!’ They made pirate hats, cutting out their own skull and cross bone emblems, carefully following a cutting line. The children practised writing their own names on pirate-themed ‘Wanted’ posters and then learned about words starting with a ‘p’ sound, taking care as they passed around tiny ‘p’ objects. The children learned how to make a ‘p’ in sand and then set about writing their own ‘p’s using pencil and paper. After a play in the Pirate Ship playground, Reception also thought about healthy eating and unlike real pirates, they had the chance to make their own fruit skewers to keep scurvy at bay! They loved picking their own blackberries and then counted five pieces of juicy fruits to create their own nutritious snacks. The day was wrapped up with a Pirate Sea Shanty before heading home.

Nursery celebrated celebrating ‘Talk Like a Pirate Day’.
They were very busy engaging in lots of lovely pirate activities such as creating paper plate pirates, pirate hats, singing Sea Shanty songs and listening to pirate stories.
They have also spent the afternoon in the forest making treasure maps and painting these with tea bags, as well as coin rubbing and counting.
What a busy day!
