1st Grade Thanksgiving Program





Derrick's 1st grade teacher puts on a Thanksgiving program every year, we know because Samantha had the same teacher and did the same one. Derrick was happy to learn the parts and did a great job during the program remembering them. He also did all the songs and poems so well. I never really knew how many songs and poems there are about Thanksgiving but now I know you can fill a 40 minute program with them!
Derrick has a voice that carries well and in the past has been heard over the other children. This year there was another little boy who surpassed them all! He had an incredible monotone voice that carried well and he knew all the words! That made us smile a lot. I am glad that Derrick is learning how to sing in tune and chant well with the other kids. It really is an accomplishment for most children!
