Flame Fun for Little Ones!

Activities	Introduction to Fire Safety - Begin with a brief discussion on fire safety rules and the importance of teamwork and communication when building a fire (5 min) Nature Scavenger Hunt - Students participate in a scavenger hunt to collect natural materials like sticks, leaves, and stones from the schoolyard or nearby park, working in small groups to foster teamwork and collaboration (10 min) Group Planning and Discussion - Groups gather to discuss their collected materials, share observations about their properties, and plan how they will construct their Miniature Campfire Model, encouraging critical thinking and problem solving (10 min) Reflect and Share - Wrap up with a group reflection where students share their experiences, observations, and insights from the scavenger hunt, and receive peer and teacher feedback on their material choices and plans (5 min)
Deliverables	1. Scavenger Hunt Collection: A collection of natural materials gathered by each group. 2. Fire Safety Chart: A chart of fire safety rules created collaboratively. 3. Material Properties Report: Observations and predictions about material properties. 4. Miniature Campfire Model: A small-scale model demonstrating safe fire-building. 5. Presentation: A group presentation during the Campfire Celebration Day.
Preparation	1. Secure permission and identify a safe outdoor area for the scavenger hunt. 2. Gather materials for fire safety lessons, including visual aids and safety gear. 3. Provide tools like magnifying glasses and notebooks for material exploration. 4. Prepare a schedule for the Campfire Celebration Day and invite families. 5. Arrange materials for constructing the 'Miniature Campfire Models.'
