This lesson plan was created based off the story “A Pirate’s Twelve Days of Christmas”, by Philip Yates. I have created a sample of the lyrics for this story to help your students remember the 12 gifts the pirate is given, and using this song sheet your students can sing “A Pirate’s Twelve Days of Christmas”.
