Our Sea Life Centre trip in Great Yarmouth

Yesterday year 2 went to the Sea Life Centre to see the animals habitats. First we got checked and put our bags in the staff cupboard. Next we went in a massive door so we could go to the touch pool. Then we stroked a bumpy starfish and a hard-shelled crab. We felt scared because we didn't want to get nipped! After that we saw unpuffed up pufferfish, flat camoflagued stingrays, fierce sharks, funny penguins, giant sea turtle and floppy jellyfish. Later on we walked down the sea front and along the wooden Britannia Pier. We got lots of fresh air and had a fantastic day. Miss Ingram fell asleep on the way back!

Pirates

We made some super pirate pictures which we have displayed on the wall. We also made pirate hats. Looking in information books we found out about pirates and how they live. Pirates drink lots of rum! In maths we solved some pirate problems like: which cannon balls to use; rum bottles; climbing ropes and the size of the dirty, smelly pirate ship.

On paper we made old, rusty treasure maps after we covered them in tea bags to make them look old. On our island we had: the sea, snowy mountains, dark forest, shiny treasure, cob-webbed caves, sandy beach and wooden houses. Next we scrunched them up because it would make it look old.

In PE we played lots of pirate games when we had to listen to the captain or you would have walked the plank! Are you scared? AAARRRGGGG!!!!!
