Monday group is interested in what it means to be a firefighter, a teacher, a cleaner, a construction worker and a vet. Today we explored being firefighters. We read the stories "Fire fighters" by Norma Simon and "Fire engines" by Anne Rockwell and the children identified two profile words. Isaak said that the fire fighters are knowledgeable about their job. It is very important to know what they need to do, because a fire can happen any time and they need to be ready to go. The children also observed from the pictures that the fire fighters are very organized – Natalya said that it is important to be organized because they are always in a hurry when something happens. Not having their stuff in a known place would give the fire fighters a hard time and they might not be on time to save the people.
Aston said that the fire fighters are very CARING. They’ve got a very important job in our community saving lives and buildings. The children came up with a list of what we need to re-enact this job.
The list included: fire bell, jacket, boots, hat, rain pants, fire truck, masks, hoses, ladder, pretend house on fire, fire department.
We will change the drama area into a fire department and we welcome all the parents and the children to come to our station and inquire about our responsibilities. Today we worked on getting our materials ready and next Monday we will re-enact a scene.
