Ahoy, mateys!
Today was International Talk Like a Pirate Day, so we celebrated in K-2 by exploring our pirate voices and playing the pirate version of the singing game "Doggy, Doggy."
The new lyrics:
Pirate, pirate, where's your gold?
Someone stole it from your trove.
(Pirate:) Who stole my gold?
(Thief:) I stole your gold.
While we sang this in a seated circle, a student designated as the pirate stood outside the circle, facing away from us. As we sang, we passed around a small piece of "gold" on the steady beat. The last person to get it within one round was the "thief." Once the thief sang, the pirate got three guesses to figure out who the thief was. I was impressed at how well the students knew their classmates' voices!
