Palmer's 3rd Grade Dr. Seuss Program

 We have loved the teachers that my kids have had.  We have honestly never had a bad teacher, and some of them have become some of our dearest friends.  Palmer's 2nd grad teacher Mrs. Pettit is such a person.  She is so incredible and makes learning so fun.  She makes the kids feel like a million dollars and we feel so lucky that 2 of our boys have had her.

She puts on a whole bunch of choral readings throughout the year and the kids get the opportunity to perform for their parents.  This performance was dedicated to Dr. Seuss.
 She had the kids illustrate phrases that rhyme.
 All of the kids were supposed to wear bright colors, and then they got either a hat or flower to wear.
 She also has them play instruments.  These have different tones based on how long they are.




 They read the book "My Many Colored Days."  Palmer was brown and I thought they were pretty cute.


 Another things that this wonderful teacher does, is teach all of her students to play the Ukulele!   They did such a great job!
 Palmer was thrilled to get to play Michael Finnigan in the song they learned.

 He was quite the dancer.



She had them all free style dance at the end.  Seriously such a cute program and an amazing teacher!
