Fire Safety Week Activities
This week has been fire safety week. It happens every October and is a great time to review the importance of fire safety with young students. By learning how to prevent, avoid, and survive fires students can be prepared should a situation ever arise where there is a fire.
Learning to call 911
In the case of a fire, it is imperative that the children know how to call 911. They discussed how that was the number for emergencies and put fire-colored construction paper squares over the outline of that important three-digit number that gets dialed.
Putting out fires
The kids practiced putting out fires on their toy houses. They squirted water on the imaginary fire and talked about how water is key to putting fires out.
Firefighter dramatic play
Some of the kiddos wanted to dress up and imagine they were firefighters. They loved this dramatic play! It was a fantastic week of fire safety.
