What if you had to leave home in a hurry? Would you know what to grab? Kid Scoop can help you create your very own “Go Bag,” a handy kit packed with important things you’ll need to take at a moment’s notice. Your container—a backpack, duffle bag, small suitcase, or even a large plastic bag—is up to you; what you put inside is what really counts! Use our “Go Bag” checklist to gather helpful supplies such as snacks, clothing, overnight items, and other essentials. You’ll complete an emergency contact card and learn fire-safety tips that can help you and your family know what to do when every second counts. You’ll discover that being prepared doesn’t have to be scary—it can be smart, simple and even fun! When an emergency says “Go!” you won’t be caught off guard—you’ll be READY, SET, and prepared to GO!

In this issue students will:

  • read informational text about emergency readiness
  • understand the essentials of a “Go Bag”
  • complete a personal Emergency Contact Card
  • identify an emergency family meeting location
  • use the newspaper to locate emergency items
  • learn fire safety rules
