Monday

Art-Fire Spatters- Draw a simple house frame with windows onto paper and then duplicate for each child. Let child color, if he/she desires. Then give each student a tiny dot of red in each window. Encourage him/her to blow thru a straw to blow the paint, to create a fire spray effect. Repeat with a tiny dot of yellow in each window.

**Cooking**  Firetruck Cookies- Need: Graham crackers, butterknife, plastic butterknives, frosting tinted red, small black creme cookies. First, take out a whole four square graham cracker cookie. Gently press the upper left corner of the first square to cut it off. This creates the fire truck's angle. Then let the children spread red frosting all over the graham cracker. Seperate one chocolate creme cookie. Then place the cookie halves at the bottom of the cracker, creating wheels. Enjoy!!!

**Gross Motor** Stop Drop and Roll- Go over this demonstration with the children; encourage them to act out each of the steps, until they can automatically do it. They love this one!!

Cognition Counting Dots-Make dalmation fire dogs. Write numbers 1-10 on the cards, and stick on red dots to correspond with that number. Place a supply of red hots to use as counters. Keep a supply of these on hand, the kids will love it when they realize it's candy. It gives them a sensation of "hot". They don't seem to eat too many though!!
