Fire Safety Activities and Crafts for Kindergarten

10/17/2020

0 Comments

 
When we learn about fire safety during fire prevention week in October, we focus on this anchor chart.  As you can see, the first item listed includes having a meeting place.  We tie this in with our fire escape plan homework.  Other fire safety tips listed include the following:
-Stay low and go.  Smoke is dangerous.
-Be safe around campfires.  Ask for a grownup to help.
-Get out and stay out.  Do not go back into the house for anything, even pets!
-I show students how to call 911 using a cell phone, reminding them ONLY to call in the case of an emergency.
-Do not hide from a fire.
-Do not touch the stove or candles.
-If your clothes catch fire, stop, drop, and roll.

Fire Safety Books for Kindergarten

Our kindergarten class reads several fire safety picture books throughout Fire Prevention Week.  Miss Mingo is my absolute favorite book for teaching about how to do a fire drill safely.  Going to the Firehouse, The Berenstain Bears Visit the Firehouse,  and The Gingerbread Man Loose on the Fire Truck gives us a peek into the life of a firefighter and a fire station.  We read Clifford the Firehouse Dog and Pete the Cat Firefighter Pete, too, because they are simply our favorite classroom characters!

Fire Safety Plan Homework

Prior to any talk of fire safety, though, our families have an assignment to develop their fire escape plan at home.  This REALLY helps to calm any fears students might have about a fire happening in their homes.  I feel it's most appropriate for the grownups who live with my students to talk with their children first.  We send home a family note and fire escape plan homework.  When students return the homework sheet, they tell the class their escape plan.  I hang onto the homework until we create the correlating firetruck craft.  Then students cut the fire escape plan out of the homework sheet.  In the picture above, the escape plan is glued to the back of the truck.  In the photo below, our friend, Mrs. Verhoff, popped escape plans onto the corner of the trucks for display.  (She also added glitter to the siren, which I love! Glitter makes everything even better, right?!)

Fire Truck Kindergarten Arts and Crafts with a Family Escape Plan Homework Activity

$3.75

This is a perfect homework assignment to send home prior to your fire safety study. It truly helps ease fears about fire safety before the classroom discussion begins. Students create fire truck crafts during morning work or center time. Send homework sheet home. Staple it to the back of the trucks for a fire safety display!

Fire Safety Week Morning WOrk

I.  Love.  NO prep crafts!  These packets are PERFECT for morning work!  At the beginning of the year, when the kids are still practicing coloring and cutting skills, these crafts continue throughout morning work for the week or for fast finisher work for the day.  The kids choose their own craft, so they are thrilled to take ownership.  Once they finish, they hang them on their lockers, another proud moment for them.  I love to have them help decorate their classroom!  This also helps us with vocabulary terms for our theme study!  We create a word bank, using the cover of the pack.  Students write about their objects!

a firefighter visit

We typically have the firefighters from our local fire department stop by for a visit.  They do a fantastic job showing students each part of their clothing, demonstrating how there's a person under all of that gear.  They remind us that firefighters show up at a fire to help, so we should not be afraid, even thought they look and sound a little strange.  They also take us out to their truck to show us the tools they use, which ties right into our community helpers unit.  Throughout fire safety week, we create these firefighter crafts for the hallway to say THANK YOU!

CampFire Safety art project

For our fire safety art project of the week, we start with a campfire projected on our board.  We turn off all of the lights and put on our coats.  We pretend to put blankets on our legs, and we make s'mores.  We review campfire safety rules together.  Then we study the colors of the flames.  This is our inspiration for our water color painting.
Picture
Students use red, orange, yellow, and brown paint on white paper.  Once the paintings are dry, I draw flames on the backs of all of their paintings.  Students cut on the lines, and glue their flames to black paper.  Then they visit me at the "glitter factory," where we add liquid glue and glitter to their projects.  They also glue popsicle stick logs onto their projects.
Picture
I just REALLY love seeing kids' art projects come to life!

Fire Safety Fine Motor Art Center

With a little tissue paper and construction paper, the kiddos did a great job using their finger muscles to carefully complete this project!  They ripped brown construction paper for the logs and used dots of glue to place crinkled tissue paper on the flames!

I actually created this campfire when we had a school-wide camping theme; since that theme, I find great importance in including campfire safety during Fire Prevention Week!

Camping Activity with Campfire Craft & Campfire Story Writing Prompt for Centers

$3.50

Have you ever told a campfire story? You might play a class game prior to your writing lesson! Place a campfire in the middle of your class circle. Have one student start the story, as s/he holds a teddy bear. Pass the bear as each child continues the story! Then students write and/or draw a detail from the campfire story. Glue a standard sheet of construction paper behind writing to make a frame. Create craft, and attach writing to the bottom of the logs for display.

Fire Safety Math Activity: Counting Shapes

We completed this pack together as a class family.  We went on a shape hunt and colored one shape at a time.  Then I projected the incomplete craft on the board, and we counted and graphed the shapes.  For fast finisher work throughout the day, kiddos cut and glued their pieces together.!
