Veterans' Day



Our Veterans' Day collage in the hallway!

Like all of you, I am proud to be an American. I think our country is great for a variety of reasons. The most important reason our country is free today is because of our military forces. For your parent/student homework, I asked the kids to bring back pictures or information about the veterans in their family. I have to say that I was so overwhelmed by the outpouring of information our class received about veterans from our own families. I'm glad to see how many of us have family members in the service! I know we are all proud of our veterans and their service to our great country.

Fire Prevention Week

A big thank you to the Holbrook Fire Department for coming and sharing information with us about fire safety! Fire safety is very important because a fire can break out at any time!
Some things we learned and want to share are:
1. Check your smoke alarms!
2. Change the batteries in your alarm once a year!
3. If you catch on fire Stop! Drop! Roll! (and don't forget hands over your face.)
4. Don't hide from the firemen!
5. Don't touch a doorknob when it's hot!

Now you know about fire safety from our class!

Braven working on his word search!
