THE ADVENTURES OF CAPTAIN CROSSBONES

In January we are starting working on the story The adventures of Captain Crossbones. Click here to see or download activities about the different chapters. This week we are doing chapters 1, 2 and 3.

An incredible family

Mr. Incredible (A.K.A. Bob Parr), and his wife Helen (A.K.A. Elastigirl), are the world's greatest famous crime-fighting superheroes in Metroville. Always saving lives and battling evil on a daily basis. But fifteen years later, they have been forced to adopt civilian identities and retreat to the suburbs where they have no choice but to retire of being a superhero and force to live a "normal life" with their three children Violet, Dash and Jack-Jack (who were secretly born with superpowers). Itching to get back into action, Bob gets his chance when a mysterious communication summons him to a remote island for a top secret assignment. He soon discovers that it will take a super family effort to rescue the world from total destruction.



In unit 4 we are learning about families.
