Hero's

Today in school at home our task was to choose a hero to research and write about. I chose to write about fire fighters. I liked typing the research up. I was good at finding the information on the internet. I found some of the words difficult to spell. The things I learnt today were what fire fighters do for their job and how to research questions.

What are fire fighters?

Fire fighters are people who are paid or are volunteers with the main job of putting out dangerous fires that threaten people or property 

What job do they do? 

Save peoples lives.

Put out fires. 

Clean equipment. 

Help injured people.

Cut cars open to get people out.

They drive fire engines..

How do they prepare for their job?

A 12 week training course.

First aid

Fitness 

Volunteer 

Why are fire men and fire women heroes?

Describe actions that might be heroic that they do.

Because they help the world. And put out dangerous fires, saving our houses and people and pets lives. Most firefighters are volunteers which means they don't get paid.

Who Am I?

 Today I made a who am I poem at home. This helped me with my spelling & writing. I found the spelling easy. I learnt more about the way the animal looks.   


Who am I?

I have green eyes.

I have big horns.

I have a small tail.

I have a brown body and withe spots on my back.

I have four big hooves.
