Pirates aboard the HMS Cockle

The Lion group read the book, 'Treasure Island' and then pretended to be pirates, just like the characters in the story.  They even read bits of direct speech, where the pirates were talking, aloud to the class in rough pirate-y voices!  They made pirate hats and, of course, maps to show where their treasure was buried.  When the maps were finished, the Lions dyed them with strong cold tea and very carefully tore the edges of the paper so that they looked like old treasure maps from long, long ago.
