P 4 and P 4/5 Jacobite Activity

Can you guess what we’re doing today? • • Clue 1: Jacobite, not Hanoverian Clue 2: Rose, not thistle Clue 3: White, not red. Clue 4: http: //youtu. be/-v 3 q. M 24 Ew. VI • And the answer is…… The White Cockade

What next? • With your partner, discuss what you know already about the white cockade.

Why the White Cockade? • The word cockade means badge. • Bonnie Prince Charlie was supposed to have picked a white rose from a bush, when he first arrived in Scotland pinned it to his blue bonnet. • Other Jacobites did the same and it then became the emblem for all supporters of the Jacobites. • It became easier to pin ribbon to their bonnets instead of Roses. Can you think Why?

Why the White Cockade (continued)… • It wasn’t just Jacobite men that wore them!

What are we going to do today? • Make our own white cockades. • You will need: 1. 17 strips of white paper each (do not lose any). 2. A cardboard square. 3. Glue.

• 1. Glue the edges of four strips of paper on to the four edges of the cardboard square.

• 2. Now bring the outer edge of each strip of paper into the centre. Glue down the edges in line with the inner edges that you have already glued.

• 3. Now repeat steps 1 and 2, but this time glue the strips across the corners of the cardboard square.

• 4. To make a double cockade, repeat steps 1 -3 on top of the rosette you have already made.

• 5. Now take the last strip of paper and glue it together to make a ring. • 6. Glue the ring, seam facing down, on to the centre of the cockade, covering the centre of the cardboard square.

• Your cockade is now ready to be worn!
