December 15th - 19th, 2025: Holiday Traditions!

Hello Firefly Families!

We had a lot of fun this week talking about our special holiday traditions and the holidays that we celebrate! We worked hard on our parent gifts, painted a circle stamp Christmas tree, responded to the journal prompt,"What's in your gift?", did a Christmas ornament craft with Graham's mom, learned about Hanukkah & colored our own dreidels with Elsie's parents, played the dreidel game, and played a gingerbread roll and write number game. And of course we all had a good time at our Firefly Holiday Party! Thank you to everyone who helped us celebrate! This week we read the books Home for the HolidaysHow Do Dinosaurs Say Happy Chanukah?Happy Hanukkah, Pups!, The Christmas Quiet and Brynn's mom came in and read us a fun pop-up version of The Night Before Christmas. Our Handwriting Without Tears letter this week was K.
