Health & Safety Speaking Opportunity for Clubs

Lynda Small with the American Red Cross Fire & Disaster Preparedness is offering her services to come and speak with our 4-H clubs about fire safety (grades K-2) or fire and tornado safety (grades 3-5).

Here are more details:

  • The K-2 lesson emphasis the importance of smoke alarms and other fire safety information through a fun character by the name of Pedro the Penguin.  Each child will receive a take home “story book” featuring Pedro.  This is an approximate 30 minute presentation.
  • The 3-5 lesson is called the Pillowcase Project.  The emphasis in this lesson is fire safety as well as tornado preparedness.  Each student will receive a pillow case and learn what items to place in it prior to an event where the family may need to evacuate.  The students have fun decorating the pillowcase with fabric markers.  This is an approximate 60 minute presentation.

If this is something that your club might be interested in please reach out to Lynda directly at 740-398-4112 or by email at lynda114@gmail.com.
