Burns Night Resources

It's Burns night on the 25th of January - if you're thinking of marking the occasion in your classroom or department, LTS have a few pages crammed with links and resources which will help. They look at Burns, Scotttish culture and also poetry in general.





You'll find Early Years resources here,

Primary Resources here

and Secondary resources are here.


In addition to this, the Robert Burns World Federation has organised a range of national and school-based competitions suitable for pupils in primary, secondary and special schools. The closing date for these is not till March 22nd. Full details here.

There are also school-based competions which you can run in areas such as verse-speaking and writing in Scots language. Work can be sent away and rewarded with official certificates from the federation. It may well be that work already completed can be recognised in this way.

I'd love to hear about any Burns-related work going on in schools over the next week or two!
