We have a new name for our class, The Giggling Googlers! This has come about in a roundabout way of exploring letter sounds and talking about words and their meanings. This led us to explore Google and well, we found it such fun that we became The Giggling Googlers.
We continue to explore different topics in class and this week we celebrated all things Scottish for Robbie Burns Night and we also continued with our Art Project along with many other activities.
On Monday, we briefly introduced who Robbie Burns was via a PowerPoint and then went onto make haggis, neeps and tatties in Food Technology. This is a traditional meal eaten on Burns Night. We cooked the vegetables and also the vegetarian haggis (which was actually very tasty) and tried it in the afternoon. We were delighted that so many children tried it and some really liked it! (that’s you Sophia)
We also explored Scottish Dancing and practised The Gay Gordons before going into the Sports Hall. We were so impressed with how quickly the children picked it up. Usually the whole school would come together for dancing with the staff band and it did feel a bit strange with so few people. However, we had the most brilliant time and were quite worn out by the end of it.
What a great day we had.
Here are the photographs and some live footage too.

Year 3 Team and The Giggling Googlers
I love this blog and I love how much Sophia seems to have enjoyed the Haggis as well as all the dancing. Looks like you all had loads of fun! Love the name too – Giggling Googlers xx
