Hello, this is Eilidh Smith and I have the power of this blog.

Writing – Robert Burns. This week we have used Robert Burns as our focus in writing. His Scottish poems are very confusing but we used two of his poems as a writing prompts. We wrote adventure stories about a little mouse and then haggis fact files.

Big Question – The Choice to Act. The best class value is kindness. This week we have been looking at values in action. We agreed on our top 4 class values of fun, determination, kindness and creativity and then Mrs A set up ‘Value jars’ that we can add counters to when we see the value in action. We also drew big people and wrote key values on the inside and actions linked to these on the outside.

Haggis themed fun. We watched a mockumentary about the wild haggis of Scotland. We learned about the Irn bru haggis, the Mullet Haggis, the Woolly Haggis and many more. After we made fact files about a haggis of our choice. On Thursday we made clay sculptures of many different haggis. Mine is called “The long neck tiny face stubby legs haggis.”

I hope you will spend your weekend dreaming about Haggis and let us know what your favourite breed of Haggis is.

Thanks for reading,

Bye! 😊
