Kindergarten students were visited by a fire fighter.  They were told about avoiding fires, not playing with matches.   If you are in a fire you should crawl to saftey to avoid breathing smoke.  If fire is on you: stop, drop and roll.  He told the students that fire fighters are your friend and you should run to them not away from them.  He demonstrated how he can dress in his protective clothes very quickly.  

Hobble Creek fourth grade students went on a field trip to Diamond Fork Creek to learn about the plants, animals, and water of our area.  They put on hip waders and used nets to look for bugs and fish in the river.  They tested the ph level of the water.  They used binoculars to observe birds and leaves on tree.  They went on a plant identification treasure hunt.  They learned about Utah animals from touching pelts, horns, antlers and beaks. It was a beautiful fall day and the forest service instructors gave them a hands-on opportunity to learn about their natural habitat.
