Wow, we had a busy afternoon with our two career visitors. Officer Shane met with 2 classes and talked with the children about ways to stay safe, MoJo, and of course his job. The children were able to investigate his handcuffs, and other items. Thanks Officer Shane for the coloring sheets, books and badge stickers.
Mr. Dale visited with the children in the parking lot of the school. The children were fascinated with the ambulance and checking out the EKG paper after Mrs. Dorgan's heart rate was checked. We got to see the lights and hear the siren, and we got to walk through the ambulance. What a fun day the kindergarten students had.

What a great visit we had from another parent today! Our visitor today is a pilot with USAirways. He shared a lot of info with the kinders, answered many questions, and presented each student with a special book. Hope you are reading and completing the activities with Maisy in this book about Maisy and her friends. Be sure to answer our poll before Friday!

Parents, we can't view this blog at school, so I may be changing to a new blog site so the students can participate in adding to the blog.

Fire Fighter

A parent of one of our kindergarten students visited with the k classes today. He is a firefighter at one of the stations in Mobile. What a treat this visit was! He talked with the students about his job, fire safety, and let his child dress as a firefighter. Video footage of actual fires was shown as this dad talked with the students about his job. Many of the students asked questions about his job, and his uniform. Thanks Mr. Jimmy!
