Fire Building

After spending time in woods learning which type of branches make the best kindling (look up for trees with needles and break off their tiny, dead, lower branches), we headed down to the beach.  Mrs. Davis carefully went through the steps to make a survival fire using birch bark and twigs and how to light a match. The students followed all of the safety rules and everyone managed to make their own fire.  They created just enough heat to roast a marshmallow!  We finished by tidying up the area and being sure we left only footprints!
