Fire Safety Week

We had a busy week of learning. It was fire safety week.  A big thank you to Station No. 3 for coming and teaching us ways to be prepared in case of a fire.








I got to be a volunteer firefighter for about 10 minutes.
 Here I am putting on the HEAVY gear.


 My kiddos were  eager to get a hug from their firefighter teacher. 


I enjoyed being a pretend firefighter....but I think I will keep my day job.
A big thank you to all of the "real" men and women who help keep our community safe.




Future Floyd County Firefighters.




We played a fun math game.  We stood above a picture and dropped colored cubes on top of it.  We had to count and write the number that landed on the picture and the number that landed off the picture.




We are working on our numbers 11-20.



To wrap up our community helpers unit we got a special song dedicated to us on the radio by Mr. Craighead.  We streamed his radio station so that we could hear our special message and song.



We searched for sight words in the newspaper and highlighted them.



I pulled out my "reading" fingers this week.  they were a BIG hit!



We are working  hard to listen for the beginning sound of words.





Look at these adorable firemen.






We made firetrucks for food Friday.






Don't forget Thursday is our 50th day of school.  Wear your best 50's day attire.


Have a wonderful weekend.
