Pirate Eye Patch Template
Now then shipmates, when you’ve made your eye patch, ask a grown up to hide some treasure for you to find in your bedroom. Make the room dark and pretend you’re a pirate ‘below decks’.
Does the eye patch make it easier to see or harder?

Pirate Density
All pirates need to know about what will sinkand what can float. (You’ll want to know too if you have to walk the plank!)
Today you will do a density experiment to understand how different things behave in oil and water.

Ahoy matey! It’s time to learn some real pirate tricks so today we are going to discover how to waterproof the ship and follow a trail whilst blindfolded! Avast ye!
Plunder(To rob/steal)
Create a blind string trail and test your skills of navigation!
Ask a grown up to set up a trail in your home (or outside if you have a safe
space). Lead the string around, over, under and behind objects. Wearing a
blindfold, see if you can follow the trail to find the treasure! Challenge your friends and family to follow the trail. Who can complete it in the quickest
time? Good luck me hearties!

Session 8
Ahoy! Today we are going to try to blend in with the rest of the pirates by making a hook to go on our hands. Then we’ll practice walking the plank! Are ye brave enough me hearties?
All hands hoy!(Everyone get
on deck)
©2019 Globeducate | Private and Confidential 20
Walk the Plank!
Interesting Pirate Fact: Some pirates really did have hooks for hands or peg legs because they got injured during battle. The peg leg would help them to walk and the hook helped them to pick things up and carry things.
If you’re feeling weary after all that plank walking, check out this link for some pirate cosmic yoga!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T_0P5grVoygClick on the link to see Swashbuckle walk the plankhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z49Js-_Bu8M
You need to have good balance when you walk the plank so that you don’t fall off! Watch the video to see how you can practice, then challenge your family and friends to a competition. Who can walk the plank the fastest without falling off? Can you walk the plank whilst balancing a cushion on your head? Can you do it blindfolded? Good luck matey!

Session 9Today we will make our own pirate ship and then fill it with treasure and see what happens! Batten down
the hatches! (Prepare for
difficulty)
Can you guess how much treasure can go on board before it sinks? Write down how much you think and then try it out. Were you right? Did your ship manage to stay afloat with all of the treasure on board?

Message in a Bottle
Interesting Pirate Fact: Many pirates had parrots as pets. There was not much space on board the ship for animals but parrots were pretty, entertaining and could be taught to speak. The pirates often got them on the islands they visited and sold them when they got back to land.
Click on the link to see Captain Feather Sword and his friendshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gq2NWl-L1rU
Pirates marooned on a desert island would write a letter and send it over the ocean in a bottle, hoping somebody would find it and come and save them. What will you write on your message?

Pirate Food!
Click on the link to hear a song about being a piratehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i8ju_10NkGY
Interesting Pirate Fact: Food would often go dry and hard. Pirates used to eat biscuits, but they were full of weevils (tiny bugs). They would tap them on their elbow to know the weevils were out before taking a bite.
Yo ho ho! Ahoy matey! Why not celebrate your return home with some of these delicious weevil biscuits! There’s nothing a pirate likes more (except maybe treasure and grog)! Enjoy me hearty!
