World War One

This term Primary 6 / 7 have been learning about the First World War. We have investigated the causes of World War One, including the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand, and the different countries involved.  We wrote reports about the 1914 Christmas Day Truce on the Western Front. Using shoe boxes we created trench models, and then planned an attack on a trench. After visiting the Lossiemouth War Memorial, we will be finishing this topic with our Remembrance Day assembly, where we will act out our World War One drama, sing songs from the First World War and pay tribute to the men and women who bravely gave their lives in the Great War.
