Let's Make It:
Homeschool Adventures
Items Needed:
Castle Sand Shaper
Shovel
Beach/Sandbox
Paper(for spelling word map)
Plastic Sleeve (optional)
Whiteboard Marker (if using plastic sleeve) or Marker
Clipboard (optional)
How to Create It:
Step 1: Create spelling word map. To do this, sketch a quick map onto paper with each landmark on the map stopping at a word from their spelling list. Write in the word with a blank for the chosen missing letter for that word. Continue until all the spelling words for the week are on the map.
Step 2: Place spelling word map into sleeve and place on clipboard (optional)
Step 3: Pack up and go! Choose a beach or favorite sand pit but remember to pack your tools: Castle shaper, shovel, whiteboard markers, and letters to bury.
Step 4: Once you arrive to the sand, start shaping out the amount of castles you will need and add in missing letters they will dig out.
How to Play:
Your marooned pirate will dig up each castle in search of the letter treasure. Once discovered, they will use their whiteboard marker/marker to fill in the letter needed on their spelling word map to complete their words.
