We are learning about the Scottish Clans and we are doing a poem it is called The Sair Finger You've hurt your finger? Puir wee man!
Your pinkie? Deary me!
Noo, juist you haud it that wey till
I get my specs and see!

My, so it is - and there's the skelf!
Noo, dinna greet nae mair.
See there - my needle's gotten't out!
I'm sure that wasna sair?

And noo, to make it hale the morn,
Put on a wee bit saw,
And tie a Bonnie hankie roun't
Noo, there na - rin awa'!

Your finger sair ana'? Ye rogue,
You're only lettin' on.
Weel, weel, then - see noo, there ye are,
Row'd up the same as John!and we will be doing a Burns supper on March the 5th.

Where are the pictures we added ?
Remember what Mr Hyde said - you must use the 'thumb-nail' pictures to ensure they are displayed.
An example of a file name is:

Notice it has the word 'thumb' in the path name.

P6 are studying the Highland Clearances this term. To help them discover information about the Clearances, they have been researching using various tools including the use of the Internet and books.

The pupils have updated this blog with details on what they have been learning about the Clearances along with some photos. A good source of photos is on scran. (These are only permissible in thumbnail view, to ensure all users can view the picture).
