Fire Safety Week!
This week the children learned all about fire safety, home safety, and school safety! We practiced our classroom fire drill rules, practiced Stop Drop and Roll, and even had a visit from the Totowa Fire Department!
Unit on Forests and Trees!
This week the children learned all about trees and how trees make forests! They learned the parts of a tree: Roots, Trunk, Branches, and Leaves. They learned about different types of forests, like rain forests. We incorporated the alphabet into our lessons through the story "Chicka Chicka Boom Boom!" and also number order in "Chicka Chicka 1 2 3." They even researched different forest animals on the internet!

Folk Tale Land
Pictured below is an interactive board I made for the children to play with. The board features settings and characters from folk tales we read in class: Little Red Riding Hood, The Three Little Pigs, and Goldilocks and the Three Bears. The children can move the characters around and practice retelling the stories. They can even mix up the characters for the next person to fix!
