Talent

Yesterday in class we talked about how we can show our talents in a variety of ways, not just singing and dancing. We watched this video clip which shows a talent of 'sand art'.
To showcase our talents, Room 12 are going to have their very own talent show next week.
What talent are you going to showcase?
