Born: 1645, , Died: 23rd May 1701 by hanging Interesting Facts William Kidd was actually a wealthy and well respected , protecting the British and American trade routes from French warships before he became a pirate.

Kidd was very unlucky as he was forced into piracy by his unruly ship crew whilst on duty. It was also at this time that the American people became very intolerant of all pirates. This led to him being hanged when caught. Kidd was the only pirate known to have ever buried any on , New York. It was thought that he did this in the hope of buying his way out of hanging!

Geography – Pirate Maps

• This week we are going to create a pirate . • In your garden or house you could hide some ‘treasure’ and draw a map for someone in your family to find it. • Try to include the features of the place you are drawing. For example, some trees, the shed and the pond. This will make it easier to follow. • On the next pages are the steps Mrs Janman took when making her own treasure map. • Once you have made your map, see if a member of your family can use it to find the treasure. Making a Pirate Map

First draw a map of your garden. Don’t forget to draw the X to mark the spot where your treasure can be found. Top tip: Use pen or press hard with your pencil as Mrs Janman’s map did not show up very clearly at the end. Making a Pirate Map

Rip the edges to make it look older. Making a Pirate Map

Use a damp teabag to stain your map. We would advise that you cover the surface you are using and wear plastic gloves to stop the tea from staining the work surface and your hands. Making a Pirate Map

Scrunch the damp paper into a ball and leave to dry. Making a Pirate Map

Smooth out your map once it is dry. It is now ready to use. Parental advice: •Our Art this week is to design a pirate flag. •Pirate flags did use imagery that was designed to shock and we advise you therefore look over the examples we have enclosed before starting the work. •Please read through the explanations for each symbol on a pirate flag on the next page. •If you would therefore prefer to leave this section out then please do not share this with your child. Art – Pirate Flags

• This week we are learning about pirate flags. • Go through the examples on the next few pages to see the flags of some famous pirates. • Then have a go at designing your own pirate flag. Use symbols page to create a flag scary enough to terrify your enemies! Who did these flags belong to? Black Bart Blackbeard

Henry Avery Captain Bonnet

Mrs Janman (Jolly Green Pearl) Your Turn! Try using some of these symbols to create your own pirate flag. Science – Plant Life Cycles

– In this lesson we are going to learn about the life cycle of a flowering plant. 1. Many plants grow out of seeds and bulbs. 2. Seeds grow roots and shoots. 3. Roots and shoots then grow leaves above ground. 4. Many plants make flowers. 5. Flowers make their own seeds. – We call this a life cycle. – There is a diagram to show this on the next page. – First, go through the next few pages. – Then, watch this BBC video and try the quiz: https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/topics/zpxnyrd/articles/z2vdjxs – Finally, we would then like you to create your own flowering plant life cycle poster. Germination

Seed Dispersal 1 Roots

4 3

Flowering Leaves 1. Germination

The seed starts to grow when condition are suitable. 2. Roots

Roots grow, usually underground. 3. Leaves

A stem and leaves form, and the plant makes its own food (photosynthesis). 4. Flowering

The pollen in the flowers is used to make seeds. 5. Seed Dispersal

Seeds are spread out so they can grow where they are not fighting for space with the parent plant. Other Flowering Plants

Sunflower Orchid Tomato plant Design and Technology – Cooking with fruit and vegetables

Raspberry and blueberry yoghurt.

Ham, cheese, tomato and cucumber wrap. PE • We are going to continue to explore basic movements such as running, skipping and jumping. • Today we are going to play ‘Cross the Lagoon’. On the next page are instructions for this game. It would be easiest to play in your back garden.

• Don’t forget to also join in with the Joe Wicks workouts. These can be viewed live every morning at 9am on his YouTube channel or previous workouts can be accessed at any time, also on YouTube. We have been enjoying doing these every morning at school! PE – Cross the Lagoon

• Set up your space with two ends as the ‘land’ and the middle as the ‘water’. (You could use a skipping rope / towel to mark off where the land starts and finishes.) • Ask your child (pirate) to cross the lagoon by moving in different ways, e.g. walking, skipping, bunny hops, etc. • Another child (or adult) can be the crocodile. • The crocodile must try to catch the pirates when they are in the water. • If they are caught they then swap places with the crocodile.
