5th Grade Fun
Learning about Fire Safety
As part of our health curriculum, the fifth grade takes a field trip to the Palatine Fire Station. They learn about fire safety which includes how to use a fire extinguisher, how to make a 911 call, what to do if there is a fire emergency in your house and what makes a fire and how it is put out. The students had a lot of fun rotating through many different stations and had a wonderful opportunity to ask the firemen questions.
