Linking our Literacy to Scots Week P7B are reading Hag Storm by Victoria Williamson. The story is based on the life of Robert Burns and one of his most famous and best -loved poems, Tam O’Shanter. We read through Tam O’Shanter and retold the story in our own words using a glossary of Scots words to help us. We also looked for the differences and similarities with the poem and the book. Moving forward we are going to link some of the skills we use in our reciprocal reading such as prediction, summarising and reflection to explore the book further and deepen our understanding of the Writers’ craft.
