Twelve Days of Christmas

In Room 11 we are being creative this week with a Christmas theme.

You all know the song "The Twelve Days of Christmas."

It might be the original version which was first written in France in the 1700's, 



Or the New Zealand version

A Pukeko in a Ponga Tree, 


or this fun Kiwi version we found online. 

But in Room 11 we composed our own version. We started by choosing a theme and then we worked in teams of three to created our songs. We had a Mindcraft version, a few about sports, a Summer beach song, a rugby theme, and a new twist on a Christmas theme. 
Here are a couple of our terrific songs. Some of the groups even had actions to go with their song. These two were the standouts.
