Nip Nebbery, pixie pointing and listening lugs 😀😀

On Tuesday the P2 and P3 classes enjoyed a fabulous afternoon in the woodlands (in their separate classes) with the Scots author Susi Briggs.
The P3’s were following up their previous virtual ‘Nip Nebs glossary’ learning with Susi – and seemed to thoroughly enjoy meeting her after all their hard work during lockdown. The P2’s were being introduced to Susi’s enchanting stories for the first time, and also relished hearing the sounds of different Scots  words.
First,  Susi played the new audio book of Nip Nebs, read by the well known actor Gary Lewis, and accompanied by the hauntingly beautiful music  composed by Alan McClure, it was made extra special listening to it in the woods.
Then Susi read the sequel, Nip Nebs and the last Berry  to the children, and after that the children set off to find some mischevious  pixies who had run off in the woods – some very excited ‘pixie pointing ‘ ensued! 🤣🤣
Each pixie had a Scots word attached to them, and once they were all found, Susi and the children figured out what each word meant.
Tuesday was a lovely example of the children enjoying exploring Scots Language – super day! 🥰
