Our week started with an assembly about Fire Safety. It was Awesome! The fireman talked about not playing with lighters and/or matches; having a family fire drill with a meeting place and the importance of stop/drop/and roll if you were ever in a fire. The firemen acted out how they would enter a house that was on fire, their gear glowed in the dark. It was really exciting. The children were able to ask questions and our assembly ended with a tour of the fire truck. We also watch a Fire Safety Video. Please discuss with your child your family’s fire safety plan. A big Thank You to Mrs. Harbour for inviting the firemen to Chets Creek.
We are finishing our study of Pumpkins. We explored with our five senses. We tasted pumpkin pudding made by Ms. Lewis’ class. Yummy! We also made predictions about pumpkins being a fruit or a vegetable. Ask your child if a pumpkin is a fruit or a vegetable? Hint: Seeds should help you. We acted out the poem Five Little Pumpkins. Hilarious!
Another question we explored was Will a Pumpkin Sink or Float?
For this experiment we joined Ms. Sasso’s class. We tested several items before testing our 3 pumpkins. As you can see from the pictures the pumpkin floats!
