Guest Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 Please help. This week i am doing subtraction and our topic is firefighters. I want to do something were children put fires out with a water pistol and then count how many are left. The specifics of an activity are leaving me clueless - any ideas on what can be the 'fire' for children to put out or any activity ideas Many thanks Lola Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cait Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 could you use pop bottles like skittles and throw ping pong balls at them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SueFinanceManager Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 Piece of card/paper folded in an L shape that would fall over without too much force from the water pistol Painted polystyrene (spelling???) again should fall over quite easily Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
