On Tuesday we celebrated Burns Day. Five years after Robert Burns died, a group of his friends got together to remember him and his poetry. The tradition became established and now, every year on his birthday, 25th January, Scots all round the world celebrate Burns Night with a Burns Supper.

We had a Burns themed afternoon in class where we took part in all things Robert Burns.
Activity 1: We read the story of Robert Burns and his life. Our task was to sequence the story by cutting out each sentence and putting it in the correct order.
Activity 2: We followed step by step instructions to draw a portrait of Robert Burns.
Activity 3: We used the chrome books to research a typical Burns supper menu and created our own.
Activity 4: We translated Scots words to English.
We listened to Auld Lang Syne and practised some Scottish country dancing. 👯‍♂️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🧆🍽🎶
