Unit 2 Application task. Jamie's Group (due 2 Nov)

Hi folks,

I'm taking a leaf from Sylvia's book and setting up a box for our application tasks, to make it easier to manage. This is where to post your experience teaching a Scots lesson/activity. It'd be great to hear what you had planned, what materials you used and how the pupils engaged with it all. Do you think the activity worked well? What might you do differently/again next time?

Look forward to reading your posts,
Jamie
