the nativity

In the seminar before Christmas we had the challenge of presenting the nativity story using different media. In our small groups we had the lesson to create what we had been given, in my case i worked with Cath and we had to do a sonnet on the nativity. At first we found a poem on the internet and rehearsed it using posh and dramatic voices. We looked on YouTube for some guidance on how to present it and based it on a Shakespeare sonnet that we found. Afterwards we changed our minds and decided to create our own sonnet using our own imaginations and old language to tell the story of the nativity. When presenting it to the class it went ok, and it was really good and enjoyable to see what everyone else had created. Especially when Laura and cara asked me to read the nativity story into a microphone for them and they changed the voice around and i ended up sounding like a chipmunk. When everything had been completed we put our nativity work on our wiki.
