The Pirates and the Best Treasure
Once upon a time, there was an invisible ship. Some BAD
pirates lived in the ship. The pirates travelled around the world, to find
treasures, secret treasures.
The pirates and the ship were invisible
[5) Show picture of the invisible ship [Here we first show the blank side of the page]. We ask
questions such as "Can you see the ship?"
You could only see the ship if you were a pirate!
6) Martín find the box labelled "Pirate kit" (it contains
eye-patches). We put on the eye-patches and we, looking at the "invisible"
ship say that we can see it and then give out the eye-patches for the kids.
Meanwhile, one of us secretly exchanges the picture of the invisible ship with
the one actually containing the ship).
One
day, the pirates said goodbye to their families and friends, and they sailed to
find a very special secret treasure. It was a very big treasure, it had a lot
of gold and diamonds.
The pirates had a map.
7) We take out the map and show it to them! (We're surprised and happy
about the map)
They traveled many many days, and weeks, and months,
and years, and they forgot about their families and friends. The only important
thing in the world was to find the treasure. Sometimes the pirates got angry and
fought with each other. In the end, they found the treasure island. They were so happy!!
They followed the instructions
8) Here we make all the kids stand up and, on their
spot, act as if they followed the instructions (act as if they were walking
somewhere, sit down, stand up, etc).
Instructions:
- Walk 5 steps to the right.
- Walk 3 steps to the left.
- Sit down!
- Stand up!
- Go back two steps!
-Take a spade
-Dig
After some hours, they hit something hard and there
was a noise: clank!!!
“We found it!” Shouted a pirate He was so excited he couldn’t
stop jumping.
Together, the pirates took out a big chest.
9) We take out the chest out of the magic box.
We open it.
We invite a few kids to look at the contents of the chest and ask: Is there money?! Is there
gold?! Are there diamonds?! Is there a dog!? Is there
a cat!?
After looking surprised we say: It's a
letter!
"There isn't any gold here, but there's a more
important treasure: there's a lesson! The
most beautiful treasure is at home: the
most important thing is your family and friends!"
The pirates learned that people are more important
than all the money in the world.
