As part of our Glasgow topic, we learned about famous Glaswegians.

We worked in groups to read fact files and pick out information about the famous Glaswegian.

• We learned about Sir Alex Ferguson who is famous for being a successful football manager.
• Charles Rennie Mackintosh is famous being an architect, designer and artist.
• Katherine Granger is famous for winning gold and silver medals in rowing at the Olympic Games.
• Duncan Bannatyne is a famous Glaswegian businessman, author and he was part of the TV show, ‘Dragon’s Den.
• Andy Murray is a tennis superstar and was born in Glasgow!
• Sir Mortimer Wheeler was a Glaswegian who was famous for being an archaeologist, and an officer in the British Army.

After we found the information, we summarised it and put it into our own fact files then presented it to the class.  We are working on improving our presenting skills by making sure that we speak clearly and look at our audience instead of looking at our jotter.
