We have been learning about Robert Burns because it is Burns’ Day (AT).

Robert Burns is sometimes called Rabbie (SD).

He died when he was 37 (ZM)

On Burns’ Night we eat haggis, neeps and tatties (HR)

Robert Burns wrote poems (JM)

He became more famous when he died (DB).

He lived on a farm (OB).

Robert Burns was poor (MK).

 

Inspired by Burns. we wrote in Scots about a “wee dug” (JR). We learned new Scots vocabulary like….

Ma wee dug is bonnie. Ma wee dug is a laddie. Ma wee dug gets boggin rinning aboot in the gairden!

 

We have been learning a new song in Scots.  If you would like to try it at home, follow this link… https://www.nursery-rhymes-lyrics.com/jeely-piece-song

A jeely piece is a sandwich with jam in it (GB) People used to throw it off a flat to their kids (CM).

We made skyscraper towers too.
