We continued to learn about helpers in our communities. We learned that firefighters, police officers, paramedics, doctors, and the military are also known as first responders and they help to keep us safe during emergencies. Did you know a flag has a truck? We talked about the parts of the flag and learned that a flag has a truck, flag pole, field, canton, and a fly end. The children also colored a heart shape flag.
