The twelve days of Christmas is a popular song at this time of year.For each of the twelve days, the singer is given a gift, beginning withthe first one, a partridge in a pear tree. Well, I don’t have anyexotic gifts to pass out, but I do have a whole bunch of sites thathaven’t fit into other columns this year. So I thought I’d see if I couldmatch the song in number. Here it goes, arranged sort of byage/proficiency of learners.
