Our class play was called The Great Yes! We only had one week to rehearse it so it took a lot of effort.

When we first rehearsed the play it was too short so we had to insert some scenes . The inserted scenes were a scene about the importance of having camel insurance, the second was about the Kings' wives with their gifts and our third new scene which we wrote was based on the cast sitting around Baby Jesus. The costumes were hard to figure out . The hardest props to make were the innkeepers' houses and the stable. It was hard to learn our lines in just one week. We had to move the whole classroom around to rehearse. We were very excited when the first class came in. We had performed for 4 or 5 classes and then it was time for our parents  to witness our amazing play!

We were very excited when our parents came in.At the start, there were only about 7 or 8 parents but about 5 mins later lots of them came in in time for the play. We were half way through the play when our new idea about the camel insurance came- it was great ;our parents loved it. When the play was over everyone cheered. We knew right then we had done an amazing job. Thank you for reading about our nativity play.
