Wrapping Up Fire Safety

Since the end of the quarter assessments interrupted the last week of October, we wrapped up our Fire Safety unit this week.  We discussed making a plan with your family to include a Meeting Place in case there is a fire in your own home.  Then each child made a Fire Exit Map for their family.  We also made a fire truck craft to decorate our bulletin board with.

More Fire Safety

This week we continued our fire safety unit.  We did literacy centers where we wrote words to label fire fighting tools, and letter identification with cute fire fighter frogs on the letter cards.  Two new words were added to our word wall, including: to and my.  To practice sequencing numerals we completed a fire engine puzzle but laying the pieces in number order.  For a craft we made fire fighter hats.  (See the cutie posted below for an example!)  Since next week is the end of our first quarter we also completed some assessments.  It has been a busy week!  Thanks for reading!

Labeling

We began our Fire Safety theme this week because October is Fire Safety month.  We created another bubble map to list the tools that a firefighter might use while fighting a fire.  To illustrate how to label a picture we labeled our gracious Morah Mandy, this was fun!  Then we continued our labeling lesson by labeling a firefighter.  You can get your own copy of the firefighter labeling worksheet by clicking here.
