Starting the children's interest and excitement off with the hook of a mysterious bottle being left in the classroom which contained a message inside. We opened the bottle and read the message.
We discussed.....
Who was it from?
Where was it from?
How did it get here?
Where had it been?
We had lots of questions about this mysterious bottle and wanted to find out more.
We then went into the hall and imagined we were on a boat that had crashed into some rocks and began to sink. We then imagined we were swimming to an island we could see in the distance.....and after using every single piece of our energy, we collapsed in a heap exhausted on the desert Island.
