Firefighters

We started our firefighter unit by making a KWL chart about firefighters. We started by sharing what we know and wanted to know. We read I'm a Firefighter.

As we learned throughout the week, we added the information we learned to the learned section of our chart. We also read A Day in the Life of a Firefighter and Clifford and the Firehouse.

We also created a class bubble map about firefighters, and illustrated fire safety rules.

We've been working on identifying the topic and details from informational texts, so we read Russ and the Firehouse. We illustrated the topic and wrote/illustrated 3 details from the story.

Firefighters Visit

The firefighters on Engine #3 visited our kindergarteners today! They talked to us about fire safety and the importance of having a fire safety plan at home in case of a fire. Fireman Brantley dressed up in his fire fighting gear to show us there is no reason to be scared of them.

Then they took us outside to show us some their tools and their fire engine.

Here's my kindergartener.
