Firefighters...

Today we were very busy putting out fires at Wal-Mart, the movie theater and the gas station.

The book: The Firefighters by Sue Whiting

The props: fire truck (present from Grandma and Grandpa for Christmas), two hoses (a swimming pool noodle and the green one was about 2 bucks at Michaels - I don't know what it's really called) and two fire fighting hats. We also added in signs, made on construction paper, for the names of the stores. Gas was 3 cents a pound today and movie tickets were 40 cents a pound, according to Andrew.

Today's vocabulary: flames, engineer

The song:
We adapted the wheels on the bus to fit, our version, the wheels on the fire truck.

The wheels on the fire truck go round and round.
The steering wheel on the fire truck goes drive, drive, drive.
The hose on the fire truck goes whoosh, whoosh, whoosh.
The ladder on the fire truck goes up and down.
The horn on the fire truck goes beep, beep, beep.
The calls on the fire truck go ring, ring, ring.
The firefighters on the firetruck go, "hold on tight."
