Firefighters

This week we prepared for our trip to the fire station by learning more about what firefighters do and about fire safety.  We read a book about Max' trip to the fire station and are excited to see if our fire station is the same.  We also learned about fire drills and we are prepared to practice our fire drill when the time comes.  We did a fire safety scavenger hunt and found four of the six things on our list: exit signs, smoke detectors, fire extinguishers, and a fire hydrant.  The children are going to look for the other two items when they are out in public this week: sprinklers and a fire alarm.

Next week is our field trip to the fire station in Edgewood.  Please be on time and bring your permission slip. (I have Julian's and Mark's.)  I still need another volunteer to come with us (or we may not have room for all the kids.)  We will be back by noon, so no need to pack a separate lunch for the children.
