The elementary kids had pirate day to end off the month of September. My 7th and 8th grade students were the helpers and team captains. The kids rotated through different stations: computer, craft, and snack. After the stations we watched a pirate lego movie and had a pirate treasure hunt around the school grounds. I was stationed in the computer lab. We set up a bunch of the teacher's laptops in the kitchen (outside the computer lab) to give more kids a chance to play pirate games on line and get their pirate name from a website. My name was First Mate Long Legs! The kids had a blast and enjoyed the afternoon. My roommate Gina is in the third picture from the end helping Lucas on the computer. We were going to get a picture of the two of us together but in all the craziness we didn't get to it. We made pirate hooks together out of plastic cups and tin foil! My students did a great job helping corral the younger kids. I've included a few pictures of the event and then a picture of my students - girls and boys. One of the twins was out sick for the week and didn't make the picture, but I'll have to take more in the future. The day was a success and a great chance to work together with my students as a team.
