Sam and the Firefly

The Ganon class read the book, Sam and the Firefly.  

Here is a quick description of the book (Thanks to Amazon):
Sam the Owl and Gus the Firefly literally light up the sky in this classic Beginner Book edited by Dr. Seuss. In Sam and the Firefly, P. D. Eastman (author of Are You My Mother? and Go, Dog. Go!) introduces us to the dynamic duo of Sam and Gus, who soar through the air writing words in the night sky. But when Gus’s words end up causing confusion and chaos for the people on the ground, it’s up to Sam to help Gus “write” his wrongs.



Mrs. Fellegy taught the children how to 
draw fireflies during Art Class. 



Next, the children chose a word that they wanted 
their firefly to write.
Each child then traced the word with 
gold sharpie marker and gold paint.
