We have been busy learning these 2 poems. You can find them on the Scottish Poetry Library website (link below)\r\nPractise often. Everyone needs to learn a poem as part of our Scots language learning. I would love as many pupils as possible to take part in our school Scottish Poetry competition. There will be a winner and a runner up chosen from our class. Good luck everyone.\r\n\r\nThe Sair Finger by Walter Wingate\r\n\r\nYou've hurt your finger?\r\nPuir wee man! \r\nYour pinkie?
