Since we came back to school the whole school has been learning about Mesolithic Scotland.When our topic came to an end we had a big clan meet to finish it off.The clan meet started as the clans where walking up and down the hills like a parade with miss Stapleton drumming.Once the parade finished the clans sat down in a giant circle around a fire we started off with each clan performing a drama scene,dance routine or drumming routine.After that we had some competitions the competition where running and archery.Next we dropped letters we made in the fire for the fire spirits they said things like “give us luck fire god” or “give us warmth in the winter fire gods”.After that we did some other things like chanting and stuff.       By Josie                                                                                                                                       

A couple of weeks ago we had a clan meet  for Mesolithic scotland so we made flags and head dress and walk up the hill and down the hill  and sat down . So the fasts Lind and the wiener got blessing and Bailey won  and we had the best atrshur  and Joe won . We rot  a later  to the fire gods .

A few days ago P5-7 made parachutes out of things like tissue paper, string and sellotape. We then conducted a fair test with a ball of play dough as our weight.

To end the topic we had a clan meet we had a running competition  and a bow and arrow competition .

 

 

 

A couple weeks ago we did a clan meet. All the clans arrived with a parade and then sat around the fire. We had our notes and flags. We started of with our clan dramas or dances. Most of them were about hunting. My clan hadn’t rehearsed so we had to make it up by the minute. I think it was okay. Some of the clans did great dances as well. After that we read out our note and put them into the fire to send to the fire god. W had to just put a bit of paper and make some thing up to say. Then we did the best archer. Some them went really far. I forgot, we did the fastest runner race.

We have learned Mesolithic Scotland about clans,bow and arrows,tools, and more. We were picked in clans to make our shelters in a clans we used natural materials to put on our shelters like wood,leafs,sticks, and stones. We made pendants out of wood and used natural materials for colour we used black berrys,and leafs, here’s some photos of the shelters we made.

for a while we learnt about Mesolithic Scotland and had a big clan meet. the whole school had to be ready for it so all clans got ready by finding the fastest runner and archer and we had to made a drama scene or a dance!.At the clan meet we had a running race and archer competition and we did our drama or dance it was very fun. when we done Mesolithic Scotland we had to make our own dens/shelters and clan pendents

A couple of weeks ago we were doing our Mesolithic Scotland topic at the end of the topic we did a clan meet and we had to get our clan and one of every clan member was holding the flag over a hill , up a hill and back down around the fire. At the start of clan meet we got our fastest runner from the sandpit around one hill and through the hills of the other hill back to the sand pit then we got one clan person to walk up to the fire, say a sentence and through the paper in then we got our best archers and see who got the furthest.
