Fire Safety Assembly


We  went to the fire safety assembly.  We learned to stay calm when there is a fire. We got to see the Jaws of Life. We also learned that a fire truck can hold 35,000 pounds of water in 1 fire truck. We also got to wear a fire man coat it was heavy. It can stand 300 and something of fire with out burning you for 30 minutes. The Jaws of Life is a tool that pries open a car door or a car roof. When we put on the coats it felt like it weighed 5 pounds and it was hot wearing it. They had ladders/axes/water hoses.

This week we were doing math with base 10 blocks and hundred blocks and 1 blocks. We used them to help us add numbers.  They helped us see that we are adding 2 hundreds instead of 2, or 3 tens instead of 3.  We are now doing 3 numbers like 20 +70+ 91=181. It's kinda hard kinda easy it's challenging.
