Here is the link to my Christmas Cloze activity, give it a go and comment on my blog on how you did!
My Christmas Song Cloze activity using smart chips
Here is the recording and video of me playing the piano while singing the song; Jingle Bell Rock by Bobby Helms:
Morena Jamie,
Nice job on the Christmas song Smart Chips! I love how you have given multiple answer options, it’s almost like a mini quiz! I had to think carefully about what the real answer was. Ka pai!
Also, your piano playing is amazing!!!!!! How long have you played for? Do you play any other instruments?
You are so brave to sing along as well! I admire your confidence. What are your favourite songs to sing?
Look forward to hearing back from you,
Ngā mihi

Thank you for the blog comment Theresa! I have been playing the piano for 4 years and the guitar for 2 years. My favorite songs to sing are Christmas songs and especially sing alongs like God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen with the music group Pentatonix!
Have a good day from Jamie
Hi Jamie,
How fabulous that you play both instruments. I just looked up the Christmas song you mentioned – definitely a classic. I like how the tempo changes up.
What got you into piano and guitar? My mum plays the guitar and bought me one when I was little and thankfully one of the teachers at my school played and spent time teaching us some chords in a small group. The first song I learnt was called ‘Octopus’s Garden’ by the Beatles I think.
Have a wonderful weekend
Theresa
