Literacy

 

Create another treasure map (just like we have been doing in class) - make sure you label each area using adjectives, for example, 'slimey, silky spider cave.' You must write 'start' and 'treasure' on your map with a trail from one to the other. When you have made your treasure map, write a letter to Pirate Long-Bottom explaining exactly how to get to the treasure! Don't forget to use positional and directional language (on, under, next to, on top, left, right, North, East, South, West.... etc)

 

 

GOOD LUCK!
