Fire Training VideoFiremen and film crews descended on the Center for Early Childhood Teaching and Learning recently to film a video to supplement The Fire Safety for Young Children: An Early Childhood Curriculum.  Firefighters from New Jersey, Arkansas and Ohio, selected for their acting skills, and children from Stillwater’s Will Rogers and Skyline Elementary School Kindergarten classes spent parts of 3 days filming a video to enhance the fire safety curriculum by providing a virtual classroom visit from a firefighter, a virtual visit to the fire station, interactive fire safety activities for young children and firefighters reading fire safety stories to young children. The video will also be used to train firefighters on how to do an appropriate classroom visit and how to conduct appropriate visits to the fire station. The project is part of a grant funded by the Federal Emergency Management Agency.  The partnership with OSU Fire Protection and Human Development and Family Science early childhood education Professor Deborah Norris and Clinical Assistant Professor Linda Sheeran is in its 3rd year.
