Primary 5B enjoyed a Burns’ celebration today.  We had shortbread and oatcakes.  Kai’s dad very kindly gave us the oatcakes. Thank you! They were delicious!

 

 

This week we have researched Robert Burns using our own devices and school i-pads and laptops.  We created a profile of Robert Burns.  We also learned some Scots words. For homework we also learned a few verses of a Burns’ poem or song and recited them to the class. Well done everyone!
