This term our topics have been Robert Burns and The Vikings.  We have studied the life of Burns and created a timeline showing key events.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

While the P5s were at percussion, P4 had the opportunity to further explore Burns life and discovered that he was incredibly famous and in the year 1787 went on a tour of Scotland to promote his poems and songs.  We created a map showing some of the places he visited during the tour as well as his homes.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We have learned a variety of songs and poems which we shared with the rest of the school during our Scottish afternoon and Burns’ Supper.

We have explored the life of Vikings discovering how they travelled across the world and for what reason.  We have also looked at the life of a typical family in Viking times, where they lived, what they ate, what possessions they had, how they entertained themselves and how they worked.
