This week we have been busy creating our very own Scottish tartan. We looked at lots of different tartans on the smartboard and talked about when people wear tartan. We then created our own tartan by drawing straight lines across the paper and down the paper. Next we decided on what colours we wanted to paint our tartan.
Laura said, ‘I had to try and keep the ruler straight when I was drawing my tartan.’
Abbie said, ‘I had to concentrate really hard when drawing the lines.’
Well done Abbie, Lily and Eoighan!
