Field trip to the Fire Station

I was able to go on Aaron's first Field Trip this year. These were the four boys in my group.

We walked to the Fire station a couple of blocks away. I volunteer in his classroom every Friday so I already know the kids in his class and how well behaved they are, but they were even on good behavior with all the excitement that was going on. The worst thing that happened was that Adam (the boy in the blue sweatshirt) was walking kind of slow.

Aaron's class started off the year being a 1st/2nd combo. Within the first month the second graders were relocated to another classroom, but because of that they hand selected well behaved and independent thinkers. There are no problem children in the class and his Teacher, Mrs. Lee is able to push the kids beyond first grade expectations. His class is doing work that is much more advanced than all the other first grade classes at the school. I love Mrs. Lee, she is a very kind and warm teacher and she uses love and encouragement to help the kids reach higher.

The kids were so good....they listened to the fireman (one of which we happened to know!) answered their questions, and waited patiently.













They all had fun checking out the fire truck and all it can do. Aaron said his favorite part was spraying the water hose!
