For My Teacher Friends


I know I dont teach anymore but I am still filled with great ideas! Since Fire Safety Week is coming up in the beginning of October I thought I would share this project. The real purpose of this lesson was to get them to practice writing their "site words" for the week. So I decided to incorporate the fire safety theme with the words. The other great outcome of this lesson is fine motor skill practice. I found a fireman template on google- they are everywhere! With age-appropriate lined paper I made four blank lines (one for each of their site words) and I finished the rest of the sentence for them. We started our first drafts on Monday and continued to revise and edit until Friday for the final draft. We also worked on rough drafts for the coloring and cutting on Monday. In this picture I cut off the boots of the project because the students name was on them.
