Literacy Snack Idea Pirates

Literacy Snack Idea Pirates

this article (and most) on primary playground, does contain affiliate links that we do earn a commission off of.  clicking these links does not cost you any extra but helps our website to keep great articles and freebies like this coming your way.

Ahoy Matey! This week we’re celebrating talk like a pirate day so we’re incorporating that into our Literacy Snack this week! We are reading, Pirate’s Perfect Pet, by Matt Myers.

“Big, brave Captain Crave can check off most items on the handy Be Your Best Buccaneer checklist. He has a pirate ship, an eye patch, courage and daring, and more. Only one thing is missing: Captain Crave doesn’t have a pet. Arrr! Shuck me an oyster and set sail for land! The captain and his crew race and chase critters of every size and shape, from the beach to a farm to the zoo to a pet shop, causing a commotion wherever they go. But just when all seems lost, the search party stumbles on the most perfectly perfect pet for Captain Crave. Has he finally met his match? Aye-aye!”

This is such a fun read-aloud for the kids! At the end, the pirate finally decides that his perfect pet is a parrot so that’s what we are making for our snack this week!
