Fire Safety week

This week we learned about fire safety. It was a very exciting week, highlighted with our family field trip to the fire station. The children loved it, and it has been the talk of the classroom all week.
In circle time, we learned to "stop, drop, and roll" if our clothes catch on fire. We learned to "stay low and go" if there is smoke in our home and we need to get out. The firefighters taught us not to be afraid of them or hide if ever we are caught in a fire. It's alot to take in, but we have been repeating and relearning all week. We did a fire drill as well on Monday to practice what to do at school in case we ever have a real fire.

We had fire truck puzzles

And lots and lots of books as well

We also had fall and pumpkin books and activities.

Isabella likes to pretend she is a mommy. She has a baby brother at home so has some experience!

Junior put a chair on the back of the trike and drove it to the back of the yard. Once Brayden hopped on to hitch a ride, the bike wouldn't go. Good lesson in things that are heavy versus things that are light!
