This week we have been busy in primary 7/6 learning all about Scots language. In our reading groups we have been learning to identify Scots, to do this we have been looking at some Scottish poems. We identified Scottish words from a poem and,using the Scottish dictionary, we found out what they meant in English. We had a lot of fun thinking about what Scottish words we already knew and were surprised by the amount we came up it. We transferred these skills when  writing our ‘Oor Wullie’ comic strips. We have also been doing some pencil drawings where we had to complete the face of Robert Burns. We were given a copy of half of his face and had to draw and shade the remainder, it was quite hard but they all look fantastic.
