P7 – Teaching P1 to Ceilidh Dance
P.E – Scottish Dancing
We have really enjoyed learning some traditional Scottish Dances. We have learned the Gay Gordons, Flying Scotsman, Canadian Barn Dance, Strip the Willow and Dashing White Sargent.
We have also realised that ceilidh dancing is aerobic exercise!
We decided that we would like to teach our P1 buddies to dance, since they are also learning about Scottish traditions.
We had lots of fun, giggles and tired buddies!
P7 – Scottish Topic
Robert Burns
This term, our focus for learning has been the life of Robert Burns and Scottish languages and traditions.
We have thrown ourselves into this topic and have been preparing to lead our Burns Supper and Scottish Showcase on the 24th January,
We hae been readin ower mony a verse written by Burns an hae learned a guid few words in Scots. At first, they wer hard tae mak sense o’ but noo we hae the hang o’ a fair number!
We are still learning to recite “Tam O’Shanter” by Burns and we are looking forward to performing this at the Burns supper. Some of us are going to try for the poetry competition on the 31st January.
We got our heads together and wrote our own toast the the lassies and the laddies. We had good fun thinking of things to ‘compliment’ each other about.
Gracie was the star writer this week and she will be reading her “Immortal Memory” on Friday.

P7 Book Week Scotland
We loved spending time this week reading for pleasure and learning about how authors create and publish their stories.
We loved learning from Inspector Fleming, PC Rae, Hannah Willow and all our Parent Readers. Thank you to everyone who came along and helped share their love of reading with us.
It was fun sharing our love of books with younger pupils.
We even took part in the St Andrew’s Day Reading Record Attempt with schools across Scotland.
