This week we will be focusing on our third week of advent and lighting the pink candle which represents Joy. Our focus during this time is the birth of Jesus Christ. We will also be focusing on our Social Emotional how to handle our strong feelings and to use our tools. For our Clifford curriculum we will be going over "Happy Holiday Helpers".

Social and Emotional:  Managing Anger
Clifford: Happy Holiday Helpers
Prayer: Our Father
Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be
thy name. Thy kingdom come, thy will be done,
on earth, as it is in heaven. Give us this day our
daily bread and forgive us our trespasses as we
forgive those who trespass against us; and lead us
not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.
