Fire Safety Month


October is Fire Safety month and we were really lucky to have Colchester Firefighters visit our classroom today.  We talked about many fire safety tips.  Some examples are:
     - stop, drop, cover your face, and roll if a piece of your clothing catches on fire
     - if you are in or near a fire, feel surfaces with the back of your hand and crawl along the floor
     - have a meeting place (like a neighbors tree, or your mailbox) with your family if you need to 
        leave your house in a hurry
     - we saw a fireman get all dressed up in his fire gear and he showed us how he crawls through
       a house looking for people.  Call out loudly when you hear someone.
     - we were even able to look at a fire truck and sit inside it!

We had a fantastic visit and we learned a lot!!  Here are some photos from our presentation.
