Do you know what tartan is? Do you know where it comes from? Have you ever made tartan before?
The Oxford Dictionary states “a woollen cloth woven in one of several patterns of coloured checks and intersecting lines, especially of a design associated with a particular Scottish clan.”
We have been looking at family tartans and the patterns within the tartans. Some children have designed their own, some children have replicated their family or chosen tartan.
We are also looking at family mottos and naming our tartan’s. It’s been a great side project for our Art exhibition for school.
What do you think so far?
