Fire Trucks

Roberts, Cynthia. Fire Trucks. Mankato: Child's World, 2007. Print.



This book teaches kids all about fire trucks and firefighters. It tells what fire trucks are, what they look like, how they move, different kinds of fire trucks, and how they are important. It also gives the meanings of terms such as controls, emergencies and sirens. The students get a better understanding of the purpose of fire trucks and firefighters in the community.

Content Area: Literature

Reading Level: 7-9

Creative Activity: The students could be "put" in different situations and they would have to say what they would do in that emergency. Have them use terms they learned from the book and tell them why it's important to know what to do in emergency situations.
