On Tuesday we had three visitors from the Woolwich Fire Department. They reviewed fire safety procedures and reminded us to have a family escape plan and meeting place. One of the firefighters dressed up in full uniform so the children would know what that looks and sounds like - and this firefighter happened to be a former second grade student in Mrs. Pols's class - quite a surprise! :)
We ended with a visit to the fire truck to see how the ladder is lowered, check out their many tools and have a look at the various controls and gauges. They stressed how important math is in their daily job as firefighters! Below are some pictures of our visit:
