Hi there! I am Studyfin, your friendly tutor. Today we will learn how to make a great plan to stay safe in emergencies!
An emergency is a sudden event that can be dangerous. A fire is one example. We need a plan so we know exactly what to do to stay safe.
A good fire plan has two escape routes out of every room. We must also choose a safe meeting spot outside. This could be a big tree or a mailbox.
We must practice our plan with our family. This helps us move fast and stay calm. If there is smoke, remember to crawl low under it.
✏️ Worked example
Let us design a safety plan for Ben. He lives in a house with a front door and a back yard. Walk through the steps to build and test his plan.
- First, Ben finds two ways out of his bedroom. Way one is the bedroom door. Way two is the bedroom window.
- Next, Ben chooses a safe meeting spot. He picks the big oak tree in the front yard.
- Then, Ben writes down the emergency phone number, 911, near the phone.
- Last, Ben and his family practice the plan. They pretend the alarm sounds, crawl low, and meet at the oak tree.
