This week we talked about Fire Safety in preschool. The Deshler Volunteer Fire Department was able to come and do a short presentation with us. We revisited fire safety information such as Stop, Drop and Roll and the number to call in the event of an emergency. We were also able to take a ride on the firetruck! Thank you to the Deshler Fire Department for coming out!
Both preschool classes enjoyed a fun time at the Geneva Pumpkin Patch. The weather was a bit wet and dreary, but that didn't stop them from playing their hearts out! Picking a pumpkin from the "patch" was the highlight of the visit!
Number identification is more fun when it's interactive!
The end of the first quarter is tomorrow, October 13th. Make sure to get all of your assignments in!
