Revising the impact of Scots across the Empire. Pupils worked in groups to pin the correct points to the correct flags.
This is a bit like a jigsaw, but it’s a little bit more squiggly. It’s a SQUIGSAW of course! This one has information for Higher pupils about the contribution of immigrants to the Scottish economy (1830-1939). The process? Squigmatch ➡️ squigshare ➡️ squigswap.
Lots of folk were enjoying a Boxing Day walk at the Milngavie Reservoir today. It was an important element of the Loch Katrine water project - a great example of 19th century Municipal Socialism. Useful knowledge point for an essay in Higher Prelim in January? Could be…
Our recruits for the May 2024 Battlefields Experience met together for the first time as a group today. They’re clearly an enthusiastic group, and we can all look forward to an enjoyable and rewarding visit to Belgium/France with @MercatToursInt next year. Countdown - 172 days
Wishing our S4 classes good luck as they start their Prelims on Monday. We know they’ll do fantastically well across the board, including Nat 5 History on 11th. You can do this! 👍
Some wonderful work from 2D to create a wall display of Holocaust victims we spent time this week thinking about and remembering.
Another brilliant trip to the Battle of Bannockhurn experience for the S1s yesterday culminated in three pupils getting dressed up as medieval soldiers! We learned loads, enjoyed ourselves and can’t wait to be back!
If Higher classes tomorrow look at this poster promoting emigration to Canada, they couldn’t possibly find anything odd about it… could they?
S4 have been learning about the campaign to abolish the Atlantic Slave Trade. We created these abolitionist plates designed to help get the message across. Which one would you eat your dinner off? #AmINotAManAndABrother
Podcast 🎙️ We are delighted to share our latest podcast episode about the recent school trip to the First World War battlefields in Belgium and France. Thank you to Daniel, Isabel, and Zack for hosting and sharing their experiences. podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/bears…
S3 have learned about the reasons why young men joined the armed forces during the Great War. They used that knowledge to create their own recruitment posters.
Good luck to all of the students receiving their SQA results tomorrow! We know how hard you have worked and are already proud of you. ⭐️
To all our @BearsdenAcademy historians preparing for tomorrow’s exams; we believe in you, now believe in yourselves, and believe in the hard work you have done this year. We look forward to seeing you tomorrow morning for Adv H and H, afternoon for N5. You can do this!
Interesting news story for all our Nat 5 historians who have learned about the murder of Emmet Till this year. Over the decades she told various versions of what happened in that store in Mississippi in August 1955. Which version (if any) was the truth? amp.cnn.com/cnn/2023/04/27…
Great to meet some of the P7s from @BearsdenPrimary who will@be joining us in August. We learned about Vikings - including designing our own “Erik the Ferocious”. Here he is, with a few of the scary shield designs from the pupils. See you all again in S1!
Today, our S3 pupils listened to a thought-provoking presentation about the Holocaust. We thought about how ordinary people, such as ourselves, can play a part in challenging prejudice today. #HolocaustMemorialDay #LightTheDarkness

A bit earlier than my historical comfort zone - but just spent a fantastic few days in Rome, mainly looking at ancient stuff!
An advent calendar of History Prelim hints. Behind the twenty-fifth door: Have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Make sure you take time to relax and enjoy time with family and friends. We look forward to seeing you all in 2023!
An advent calendar of History Prelim hints. Behind the twenty-fourth door: Be confident. Don’t be complacent - of course you need to do the work to prepare - but believe in yourself. Your teachers believe in you. YOU CAN DO THIS! 👍
An advent calendar of History Prelim hints. Behind the twenty-third door: Turn up in plenty of time! If an exam starts at 🕘 9, don’t expect to run into school at 8:59 and be able to do your best. You need a little time to settle yourself, including checking where you’ve to sit.
