We celebrated the life and works of Robert Burns with four different master classes.
Mrs Arbuckle told us about his life and we learned about “Tam O’ Shanter”. It was quite scary. Erin P had visited Burns Cottage and showed us some information about it .We also had a class Burns Supper, with oatcakes and cheese and blackcurrant juice. We said “The Selkirk Grace before we started. We finished with “Auld Lang Syne”.
We listened to “My Love Is Like A Red, Red Rose” with Mr Hendry and made beautiful roses.
With Mrs Provan, we learned about the music of “Ye Jacobites By Name” and “Charlie Is My Darling” and kept the beat of the music with instruments. We also learned some Scottish dancing.
Finally, with Mrs Adamson, we learned about Scots words and wrote our own class poem – “The Muckle Coo”.
We had a brilliant day!
Great work! Ryyan enjoyed reading out the Muckle Coo to us 😄
Thanks. The children had a great day. Unfortunately, I forgot to take photos on Friday of our Burns visitor. He was very good with the children.
