We (5th & 6th grades) went to the theatre to watch a wonderful play in English called “TREASURE ISLAND”.
We learnt a lot of vocabulary and expressions related to ships and we sang some fun songs as well!
This is the story of Treasure Island:
Jim Hawkins, a young man, works in a pub called The Admiral Benbow. It was his mother’s pub when she was alive but now
it is his pub. He likes the sea and dreams of going on a sailing adventure.
One day Billy Bones, a pirate, comes into the pub. He dies with a treasure map in his hand. It is a secret treasure map of Treasure
Island. It says that on the island there are three clues that will help find the treasure. Jim decides to go to Treasure Island. He wants the treasure.
Jim needs a ship. He meets Captain Long John Silver. Jim tells him about Treasure Island. Long John Silver offers to take Jim on his ship, “The Hispaniola”. Jim agrees and they set off on the voyage.
Unfortunately for Jim, Long John Silver is a pirate! When they arrive at Treasure Island, Silver tries to steal the map from Jim. But Jim escapes with his map and goes to find the three clues. The three clues
that will take him to the treasure. When Jim starts looking for the treasure, he meets an old man called Ben. Ben has been on the island for a long time and helps Jim find the three clues.
But Long John Silver is very angry and he’s looking for Jim and his map!
And the question is: Where is the treasure???
