Fire Safety Week

 We spent time this week learning about how to be safe around fire. We watched a video from the Kenton Fire Department showing the behind the scenes of their fire station and wrote to describe firefighters. We talked about ways to prevent fires and different ways firefighters fight fires. We learned about Stop, Drop, and Roll and sequenced the steps using pictures on a hat. 

The highlight of fire safety week was the fire truck parade from the Upper Sandusky Fire Department. Every student colored a letter for our We Love Firefighters banner that was sent to the fire station! 

Fire safety even showed up in math. We made hats with different numbers from 0-9 to practice comparing numbers. Students got to move and groove until the music stopped, then had to find a partner to compare to determine greater, less, or equal. 

In Math this week, we worked on numbers 6-9. Students can show the numbers with objects, drawing pictures, and coloring tens frames. We are also working on handwriting for each number. Next week, we will dive deeper with comparing with numbers 6-10. 

In Science next week, we will be learning about signs of fall next week and working to organize some fall objects based on their properties - like shape, size, and color. 

Enjoy the weekend!
