Fire Station Field Trip 
On Thursday, November 20th, room 283 traveled to the Lexington Avenue Fire Station. We saw a big fire truck, a fireman changed into his gear, and we got to explore the fire engine! Some of us imagined we were fire fighters and tried on the hat. The most exciting part was when one of the firemen slid down the pole – twice! We enjoyed our trip and made a class book about the the experience. Please stop by room 283 to read the book about our field trip to the fire station.
