Captain Planks Pirate Adventure Key Stage 1 – My Pirate Adventure

Once there was a poor young pirate named Captain Plank. He lived with his parrot Nelson in a tiny, run-down red shack near the sea.

On Monday, Captain Plank decided to head off in search of pirate treasure. But then he realised he didnt look like a pirate.

So he rummaged in his cupboard and found a big black hat. Arrgh, he said. Now I feel more like a pirate.

On Tuesday, Captain Plank was nearly ready to start his adventure. But then he realised he had another problem. He didnt have a ship.

So he looked around the harbour and stole a speedy ship with three sails while no one was looking. He named his ship the Flying Dragon. Then he was ready to set sail!

On Wednesday, Captain Plank pulled up the anchor, raised the sail and set out to sea. Nelson and the Captain were having a great time. They sailed so far out that they could not see land anymore. But then Captain Plank realised they were lost.

So he ran into the ships cabin. He searched high and low until he found a map to help them on their way. Then Captain Plank and Nelson werent so lost. [Insert picture of map]

On Thursday, Captain Plank wanted to scare other ships with his fearsome Jolly Roger flag. But he realised some sneaky pirates had climbed the mast and stolen it in the night.

So he ran to the bow of the ship and found a new flag and some paint. Then he made an even scarier Jolly Roger, with a skull and crossbones on it. Captain Plank flew his new flag with pride.

On Friday, Captain Plank arrived at a faraway treasure island. He realised the islands treasure was buried on the beach and would be hard to find.

So he dug down deep in the sand with all his might and found some precious pieces- of-eight. Then Captain Plank wasnt such a poor pirate anymore.

On Saturday and Sunday, the Captain and Nelson had a big party on the island and invited all their pirate crew.

They celebrated Captain Planks new riches and sang Nelsons favourite pirate song… When I was one I sucked my thumb The day I went to sea. I jumped aboard a pirate ship And the captain said to me… THE END
