Fire Safety Week






Hi there -
This week was somewhat of a dud since I was sick most of the week :( But what days I was open we had a lot of fun with this week's theme - Fire Safety.

The pictures show a couple of crafts we did - a dalmatian toilet paper roll craft (so cute!) and a fire truck. The kids colored all of the pieces, I helped them cut them out, then they glued them together on the paper. I've noticed as a preschool teacher that kids LOVE to glue!! Its a constant lesson teaching them that a little goes a long way :)

We did some fun math game this week - focused on counting, patterns, color matching... The picture with the "Stop, Drop and Roll" cards helped the kids continue a pattern that had already been started. The colored fire station was an activity to help them with their color matching. And the one with the fire dog and the pompoms was the activity that helped them count how many "spots" (pompoms) to put on their dogs.

We also read some fun fire-themed books and focused on the letter "F" this week.

Coming up next week...Sports Week! Should be a blast!

Take care,
Kendall Stark
