Fire Safety

The second week in October is Fire Safety Week!  What a great time we had in KE that week!  We learned all about Fire Safety and what we should do if we are in place with a fire. 
1. GET OUT!
2.  CALL 911 AND FIND AN ADULT

We also learned if our clothes catch fire we should:
1.  STOP
2. DROP
3. AND ROLL

We learned many songs to helps us follow these rules!  We are lucky enough to have a student in our class who's Dad is a Firefighter.  She shared many great things with us!  Thanks Ava!
We were also VERY lucky to have a Kindergarten Teacher on our team who just became a Firefighter.  She brought all of her firefighting gear to school and we got to visit her classroom.  She shared with us each part of her gear and what and why she needed to wear it.  Thank you Ms. Bouse!  :)

We realized that firefighters look a little scary when they have all their stuff on, BUT they are not scarey AT ALL!  They keep us safe and are here to help us!  

We ended our week with a school-wide fire safety assembly.  We had a fire drill and the fire trucks came to rescue a teacher out from the Second Story building.  We then met in the gym to meet the Crete Fire Department and learn about their jobs!  

****Something to practice at home would be making sure students know their Primary Phone Number and Address!!  We will work on it at school too!
