Fire Safety Week

This free collage generated with Smilebox

This past week was fire prevention week at school. All of the second graders have a lot of knowledge about how to keep themselves safe in the event of a fire. At the end of the week we had the opportunity to have two of Williston's own brave firefighters come into Synergy to show us their gear, answer our questions and we even got an up close look at one of their engines. Enjoy the photo collage of their visit above.

This week we said good bye to the continent of Africa as we concluded our study of African Animals. The students had a great time traveling from workshop to workshop and learned a lot about the four main habitats of the animals. They created a lift the flap book and researched one animal during our technology time. Our travels will continue next week as we dive into a new theme unit on mapping. The workshops will focus on the five different regions of the United States. Each week your child will be heading to a new region of our country. Off we go!

Time flies and it is already time to sign up for our fall conferences. We tried to provide a few different choices of days and times to work with your schedules. If you look on the Important Dates sidebar to the right you will see the link that will bring you to the wiki where you can sign up. If none of the times work for you please let me know and we can work something else out.

See you soon!
