Build Your Wild Self {Animal Adaptations}

Build Your Wild Self  was a site that I just stumbled upon, but was probably one of my students favorite activities that we did all year.

One time, when the alarm goes off, tell your kids that your first location is compromised and head for the second location.  Here are a few resources that I have found that I think are helpful for teaching about Fire Safety: Fire Safety Rap Video   Video About Fire Safety (Interview with Firemen) Fire Safety "What Ifs?" Easy Fireman Hat Fire Safety Activities And OF COURSE - Fire Safety Snacks!! Fire Truck Crackers ...
