Primary 3 have enjoyed learning about many Scottish inventions to start off 2026. The pupils chose which Scottish inventions to find out more about. Here are just some examples of their learning.

We investigated fingerprints. P3 enjoyed identifying the fingerprints of the teachers in school and then looked at their own for unique markings.

We investigated the history of golf. We found out about a local golf course and made our own mini golf courses.

We learned about the person who invented the kaleidoscope and had a go at making our own.

 

We found out that ice hockey originates from the Scottish game of Shinty.

There are so many more Scottish inventions that we have covered, as you can see in the photo above. Maybe our class has a famous inventor of the future!
