Personalizing the Holidays

What's your favorite Christmas carol?  
1. Practice typing it as you hear it sung to improve your speed.
2. Now take the typed copy and change the lyrics to tell a story about your life.  
3.  Add a title to fit your newly personalized Christmas carol.
4.  Ask a friend to help you revise and edit the rhythm, tune and grammar.
5.  Finally, post your favorite portion here for us to enjoy! 
* Don't forget to embellish with clipart and fonts before printing a final copy.

Brownell Jingle Bells
Dashing through the house
In a bad mad rush for school
Running into siblings
Fighting all the way
Pulling sisters hair
Arguing with my brother
What fun it is to yell and scream
At a hurry pace today
Hurry up, hurry up,
Hurry all the way!
O what fun it is to yell and scream
At a hurry pace today!

Christmas Break
By Savannah
Dashing through the mall,
Buying gifts for everyone,
In the lines we stand,
Can’t wait for Christmas fun!
Deciding where to go,
Over Christmas break,
Too many suggestions,
Can’t decide where to go,
Oh Christmas Break, Christmas Break,
Christmas Break is fun!
Let’s celebrate the birth of Christ as we sing our Christmas songs!
