The Broons’ Bramblin’ Weekend

Hello! Caspian here!

I have done some maths and spelling today. I also watched NewsRound and discussed the stories with Mum and Mark. I also had to put punctuation into the Broons comic and then do it in english. Here is the Scot version:

Ā ā€œCome on, you lot!ā€ NaggedĀ Grandpaw. ā€œPitĀ yerĀ auld clothes in this case for theĀ bramblin’!ā€ ā€œWhy can we no’ jistĀ wearĀ oorĀ auld clothesĀ taeĀ but an’ ben?ā€ One o’ the twins asked. ā€œBecause ye’re noĀ goin’ doon Glebe Street dressed in rags. That’s why!ā€ Stated Maw Broon. ā€œAwa’ for the weekend Mrs. Broon?ā€ A lady on the street asked. ā€œEr…yes. We’re just taking a break, up at our country cottage.ā€ Maw Broon replied. That afternoon they had reached their cottage. ā€œHere we are!ā€Ā GrandpawĀ said. ā€œWe’d better turn in for the night. We’ll be up at the crackĀ o’dawnĀ for theĀ berrisĀ the morn’!ā€Ā GrandpawĀ instructed. Next morning,Ā GrandpawĀ stepped out of the house to pick berries. ā€œRise an’ shineĀ a’body! Let’s get at those brambles!ā€Ā GrandpawĀ commanded. When they got there, they all had their own conversations. ā€œJust as well we’ve gotĀ oorĀ auld togs on eh, Maggie?ā€ Maw Broon asked Maggie. ā€œYes! These thorns would rip our tights to shreds!ā€ Maggie replied. Later when they had picked enough berriesĀ GrandpawĀ shouted: ā€œThat’ll doĀ a’body! We’ve got enough to make a few pounds o’ jam!ā€. When they got home, Hen and Joe were waiting outside. ā€œCome onĀ Grandpaw! We’reĀ caspin’ for a cup o’ tea!ā€ Joe complained. ā€œAye, getĀ yerĀ keyĀ ootĀ and open the door!ā€Ā HenĀ askedĀ Grandpaw. ā€œOh no! I’ve left my keys in myĀ guidĀ breeks… An’ they’re still inside!ā€Ā GrandpawĀ explained. When they walked past the lady’s house. ā€œWell, well. If it’s no’ the Broons back from their country cottage. Ha, ha!ā€ The lady said. Whit a disgrace! The youngest Broon thought.Ā 

And on that note, goodbye!

Washing Day

Today I have been doing some maths questions and quarters and halves and some spelling too. I read Jordan’s New Jaiket and drew a washing line with clothes on written in Scottish. I also helped mama make smarties chocolate cookies. They are yummy, even my old cat Nessaphina had some of my cookie.

Play happily, stay safe and smile every day xxx

British Museum Update

Hi Everyone,

Well, your questions about the Arctic were all sent to the British Museum last Friday. I thought you might be interested to see the reply.Ā  Ā I’m very excited that some of the Inuit peoples will be given chance to answer your questions…. we will have to wait patiently for the answers!

Hi Mrs Armstrong,

Many thanks for sending these questions through – I’ve sent these over to our Arctic Exhibition curators : Amber Lincoln, Peter Loovers and Jago Cooper. Amber is going to answer some but has also said she will speak directly with the Inuit peoples and ask them to provide some answers.
I’ll be in touch again as soon as I have an update for you.

Very best wishes,

Martin Payne

Head of Schools and Young Audiences

In the hub

Here are some photos of the work the guys have been doing over the last 2 days in the Childcare Hub.

Answering reading questions, doing jumbled sentences and translating Scots…

 

Using concrete materials and number lines to work on subtraction problems, and some team work to solve word problems and the Inheritance Challenge…

And lots of Arctic art…

We’ve also made the most of it being dry (although cold!) and been out for some walks. Hope you are all having a good week too!
