Our camp fire
Patrice our teacher in training thought a campfire and roasting marshmallows would be a great intentional teaching activity for this interest. The children helped place the ring of rocks and build the fire within the ring of blocks in the sandpit. The elder children in particular showed great initiative and care in building the fire. they also had to listen to, follow directions and instructions from Patrice, especially around safety. This was great practice that developed competence and awareness of keeping ourselves safe. There was also conversations around burns, first aid, dialing 111 in emergencies and how to help others in emergencies. Great ready for school preparation and life skills. Great work and great fun Patrice and her helpers!
