An AWESOME Field Trip

We cannot thank Mr. and Mrs. Snawder enough for our field trip to Fire Station 173. How good was it? Well, he kept 33 third grade students learning and engaged for 2 hours! THAT's how good it was!

Sienna looks so happy with blood dripping down her arm:) 

Now we know how to apply direct pressure on the wound, and elevate it above the heart. 

Salem was a good patient as Mr. Snawder demonstrated how to stabilize a broken arm and make a sling.

The kids did a great job trying their new skills on each other. 

Next, there was a demonstration on how to help a person with a neck injury. Gabriel was such a good sport about being all wrapped up!

We kept the right beat to the song "Staying Alive" as we did chest compressions!

And finally, we watched Sienna be rescued from a burning room filled with smoke!

THANK YOU Captain Snawder and the rest of his crew for doing such a great job protecting us. We all left with newfound respect for what they do each and every single day.
