Thankful for the People Who keep Us Safe!

Hi Parents,  

This week at Little Dreamers we'll be learning all about the people who keep us safe!  We've started our week by learning about firefighters and all of the hard work they do to prevent and stop fires!  We read all about "Hopper the Fire Dog" and we learned how to "Stop, Drop & Roll!" We wore Fire Hats and hung them up in our classroom and even made our very own firetrucks.  We practiced our shapes by making circles for the wheels and squares for the windows!!  Ask your preschooler to show you how they would stop a fire. 

Tomorrow we'll be continuing our lesson by learning about Police Officers and Paramedics.  We'll make our own police badges and talk about how important it is to behave and to follow directions.  We'll talk about how important police officers are and how they keep us safe.  We'll learn the numbers 9-1-1 and what to do in an emergency.  

This week will end by celebrating Veterans day together and learning about how our Soldiers keep us safe from a far and how important their jobs are to our freedom.  We'll learn what Freedom means and learn about how lucky we are to have it.  We'll study the Colors of our Flag and say the pledge of allegiance!  Did you know that the Star Spangled Banner was a poem before it was a song??  We'll learn the poem and talk about what it means. This week will end with a special guest speaker who will come in and teach us first hand, how to stay safe!

Look out for last weeks projects which are being sent home and continue to ask your Little Dreamer about all that their learning in school!

Love,
Miss Jessica
