Mrs. Swart and Mrs. Callan's Pre-K Enrichment class at Arrowhead Elementary School learned about different types of animal ears and how they help them hear sounds from both close and far away. Students guessed the ears to different animals, then created their own animals with mixed-up ears. Some made elephants with mouse ears, others made wolves with elephant ears. Students worked hard to plan out what they needed to bring their animal ideas to life.

October marks Fire Prevention Month and students in the Three Village Central School District are learning about fire safety and what to do in case of an emergency. The Setauket Fire Department visited several of the district’s elementary schools to introduce students to the best safety practices.

Firefighters put on their equipment to show students what they may look like when responding to an emergency. Students then went outside to tour a firetruck and other emergency vehicles. This engaging visit educated students while introducing them to some of the first responders in their own community.
