William had to lead us to his reading specialist's room via the school elevator, where he supplied Star Trek sound effects as the doors opened and closed. Once in the classroom, the specialist showed us the first article William would collect.
William's task was to read the pirate making hat directions to all of us.
From there, William had to lead us to his physical therapist's office where he had to read his next task: bounce and catch a ball 10 times in each hand.
William collected a vest when he completed his ball bouncing challenge.
The next stop was speech therapy. His clue (task) was a scroll taped to the desk, which he had to read to us.
William had to match events to a time of day
He received a sword and instructions to go to another office where he read yet another clue, solved a maze puzzle, received a spyglass and was directed to see the Principal for yet another task.
William had to read his treasure hunt story so far and glue the matching pictures to the correct page.
After successfully completing his book, the Principal gave him another clue
The principal's clue led us to the map that showed where the buried treasure was
Following the map and counting steps
Ribbons marked the way to the buried treasure
Checking the map
Arrrrrr! Thar be the 'X'!!!
Digging for treasure!
Thar be the treasure!!!

Thanks to his aide, Mr. G, for the photos today.
