Beep! Beep! Our Shooting Star students visited the fire station and it was an enjoyable and memorable experience for everyone! They met two gentlemen who are working in the fire station who toured them inside the ambulance and around the fire trucks. They discovered many tools the firefighters use in helping and saving peoples’ lives in case of fire. Two of the students got to try lying down on the stretchers from the ambulance and fire truck. They also had a chance to wear the firefighters’ jacket, helmet, and air tanks. Seeing the firefighters’ tools and equipment up close and being able to touch them was such a great experience for Shooting Star. It was a day full of discoveries because they were able to learn what firefighters’ job is and the questions in their minds were answered by the firefighters. 🧑🚒🚒
Since we are learning about the community helpers, we decided to change the classroom environment and set up a play area related to UOI. Shooting Star chose to make an ice cream shop because they remembered the day when they went to Aeon mall and craved ice cream. We learned who the people work in an ice cream shop and what their job is. Ice cream vendors are the term we used to refer to the people who sell ice cream from a truck or cart to people in the neighborhood or public places. Ice cream scooper or ice cream server works in an ice cream shop to serve ice cream to the customers. They made ice cream toys using newspaper balls and we will paint them next week. We also set up a fire station/fire truck wherein students can pretend to be firefighters. We also have a hospital area wherein students can play the role of doctors and patients. Everybody enjoys dressing up as community helpers during our free play time. “I’m a doctor. I’m a police officer. I’m a firefighter.”🧑🚒🧑⚕️👮
Our phonics lesson was really fun too because after practicing reading CVC /eg/ words family, we played a CVC words basketball game. Both groups were so competitive in showing what they learned. Everyone enjoyed the game and showed that learning can always be fun.🧺🏀
