This week Primary 2b have been exploring the different Scottish clans and their traditional dress. We have looked at the various types of tartan used to make kilts and compared the different colours and styles. We then designed our own clan tartan by weaving paper. They look fantastic!
We also enjoyed creating Scottish Acrostic poems, thinking of words and sentences that began with the letters of the word SCOTLAND. Here are a few examples:
Evie
Scottish wildcats.
Coos are Scottish.
Often it is raining.
