Fred is a friendly worm who took his boat out on the lake one day. However, Fred wasn’t very careful because he forgot to wear his life preserver! Unfortunately for Fred, a strong wind caused his boat to capsize. Now his boat is upside down, Fred is stranded on top, and his life preserver is underneath!
•Do you have ideas? (1) turn Fred’s boat right side up, (2) get Fred back into his boat, and (3) put on Fred’s life preserver
Rules:
•Can not let Fred fall into the lake or he will drown.
•Think about what ideas you would use to help Fred.
What could you use around your house. Draw or write your ideas.
