  1. Stimulus 2 The Burns Supper

  2. Order of the Supper • Piping in the guests at top table. • Welcome and ‘Selkirk Grace ’. • Haggis piped in and ‘Address to the Haggis’. • The Bill o’ Fare (the menu) sample menu. • The Immortal Memory – speech to Burns, his life and works. • Toast to the lassies. • Reply from the lassies (Toast to the laddies). • Closing poems and songs.

  3. Toasts to the lassies/laddies:a humorous, but not offensive, speech • Brainstorm relay game. Boys stand in a line, girls in another line. • Two teams – the person at the front has the marker pen. • Two pieces of paper are stuck on the wall. You must all take turns ‘in relay’ to write something on the paper associated with ‘female’ and ‘male’. • From this list, speeches will be written revealing what boys think of girls and vice versa.

  4. Scenario • Improvise a scene where a boy is leaving school and wants to be a nurse or nursery teacher or a girl wants to be a mechanic. • The parents have very traditional ideas and find it difficult to accept what their son/daughter wants to do. • What happens?

  6. The Disastrous Meal • Look at the picture in the previous slide. • Look at all the different characters. • Pick a character and make up a character card for them – name, age, background, personality. • Think about as many different things as possible that could make a dinner party a disaster, eg. fly in the soup, people arguing, secrets revealed…. • Improvise a scene at a dinner party that goes horribly wrong. Be the character that you created.
