Lots of firefighters were at our school today! It was Fire Safety Day. We went outside and went to a few different spots to learn. 
One of the stations was a doll house. It had different fire hazards like a boy who was playing with matches, a radio near the bathtub, smoke detectors going off, and a pot on left on the stove. 
At another station we got to see firefighters dressed in their safety gear. 
Nancy learned not to hide from them, even though they might look and sound scary. She also learned to make a lot of noise so that the firefighter would know that she is there.
Sasha learned to leave her favorite belongings behind because the firefighters will try to go back and save things like stuffed animals or pets after the people are safe. At another fire truck, we got to see equipment and tools that firefighters use to cut through wood, concrete, or metal to help save people.
The last fire truck, we got to see a firefighter standing on an airbag. As it filled up, she rose up off the ground. We also talked about having a family meeting spot in case of an emergency.
We stayed inside during P.E. We played freeze tag. You get a green or red Frisbee and walk, run, or skip away. If you are touched by a red Frisbee, you’re frozen. If a person with a green Frisbee touches you, you’re back in the game. Victoria, Emma, and Nancy had green Frisbees. Adam, Meaghan, Anthony D., and Hunter had red ones. Everyone else didn’t have Frisbees and tried to stay unfrozen!
Today we read the next chapter in Junie B. Jones: Toothless Wonder called “The Fairy.” Junie B. wanted to bring in her lost tooth for show and tell. Paulie Allen Puffer told Junie B. that the tooth fairy isn’t a fairy but she’s a witch instead. The tooth witch eats teeth like apples! We agreed that the tooth witch isn’t real!
Speaking of teeth, Anthony D. was the first person in our class to lose a tooth in school! It fell out when we were on the rug. Lauria, our paramedic, took him to the nurse. Mrs. Spiro placed his tooth in an envelope and gave Anthony a little tiny treasure chest to put the tooth in for the tooth fairy.
We used M&Ms for math today! First, we sorted them by color and predicted how many we had in our pack. Then we completed our bar graphs and thought about what they showed us. We found which color had the most and which had the fewest. The last thing we had to do was tell 3 facts about our graph. The thinking about the graphs is what helps us get real smart! Anthony D. and Emma’s favorite part of the activity was eating! Dylan A. liked coloring the boxes. Meaghan liked writing about it the most. Sasha liked making her prediction.
