First graders learned about fire safety this week in health. First, we talked about how fire can hurt things and people: burn and smoke. We discussed the different ways burns and smoke can hurt people and damage things. Then, students watched a short fire safety video, summarizing fire safety points. Finally, we reviewed fire safety ideas and concepts with discussing rules for preventing fires and burns.
Next week, we'll continue fire safety with reminders of what to do in case of a fire. This will include reading aloud some situations and then discussing the safest option. Students are so engaged when we read situations, and they have so many connections to all of our topics!
