Instruction
This lesson will explain how important it is to know what to do to prevent and keep safe from fire. The students will learn about fire safety equipment, how fires can be started and what to do to prevent them. They will also observe videos to learn what to do to keep safe during a fire, such as "stop, drop, and roll," and how to get out of a smokey room by crawling low to the ground.
