Our Class Learns About Fire Safety
Our class had the pleasure of having two area firefighters come to talk to our class about what we can do to help stay safe in our classroom and at home. The firefighters gave our class some wonderful advice. At home, as within our school environment, we should follow these safety tips.
- Always have a meeting site outside our school and home if a fire ever occurs.
- Remember to stay low and crawl if there is smoke.
- Touch a door to see if it hot before leaving a room.
- Have your child become aware of your personal information, such as your address, phone numbers, and how to use a phone for calling 911 in an emergency.
- Stop, drop, and roll in case of fire.
- Never play with lighters or matches and to be very careful around all stoves or heaters.
The lesson was really informative and the firefighters showed us how they "suit up".
In the next few weeks we will be heading into a couple of new themes for science with extensions that will be used in our literacy and mathematics centers. We will be studying bats and owls with lots of fun activities. Echolocation and how bats use this will be a major theme and we will take apart owl pellets to see what owls eat.
