Our topic at the moment is Scotland, so this week we have been celebrating Robert Burns. We made a Burns Supper menu with foods on it like Broth soup, haggis, neeps and tatties and shortbread ice cream with chocolate sauce – YUM! We listened to Auld Lang Syne and we have been learning about old Scots language by matching old Scottish words to their meanings: like Ben means mountain, auld means old and dreich means a cold and wet day. We have also made a Scottish wordle in the shape of a thistle with all the new Scotland-related words we have been learning in our topic so far.
Last week we focused on different places in Scotland like Aberdeen, Dundee, Edinburgh and Glasgow and we had to write the places on the map.
We have really enjoyed learning about different places, Scottish artefacts and a famous Scot.
