Hello to all TwoFish participants.

Week five is complete and we’ve many more photos and ideas to share in our newsletter.

Alice and I built a new tent and we discovered that it was a great place to create and narrate stories from.

We had the first egg challenge, the one where the participants had to figure out a way to protect an egg when it hits the floor. We had several unexpected and very funny results.

Many participants successfully discovered where the key was hidden at TwoFish and we also had success with the secret agent message.

Martin created a new hockey game and the first ever white slime was made by Nino.

We had some more cooking, the escape room continued and several participants guessed correctly how I made the sound effect story.

That’s all from me, see you in your next class.

Things to do at home

Somewhere in the classroom, the key is hidden. If you can say the words, you will get a clue where to find it.

THERE ONCE WAS A MARTIAN NAMED ZED
WITH ANTENNAE ALL OVER HIS HEAD.
HE SENT OUT A LOT
OF DI-DI-DASH-DOT
BUT NOBODY KNOWS WHAT HE SAID.

If you can find the key and open the treasure chest, there are some treats inside.

This is a great song. Maybe you can sing along?

I’m hurting, baby, I’m broken down
I need your loving, loving
I need it now
When I’m without you
I’m something weak
You got me begging, begging
I’m on my knees.

Your secret agent wants to meet you in London.

You will receive weekly messages from the secret agent’s friends.

Listen to  the message, write them down and give them to Robert.

If your message and the secrets agents message are the same, Robert will give you a clue where he or she is hiding in London.

The game is over when you finally meet the secret agent.

Listen to the code words here.

Good luck!
