When we did the lesson on fire safety at home, I had to get a bit more creative in explaining why the boys in the story had to do what they did during their family’s fire drill. Actually, telling her why they had to do a fire drill was a challenge in itself. Anyway, to explain why it was important that in case of a fire, she has to touch the door to check if it is hot before she opens it, I went to youtube to show her videos of what is a “backdraft.” Then, as to why the boys had to crawl on the ground as they made their way out of the house, I found this really cool video wherein a dog is the one doing the demos on fire safety moves.<\/p>\n

We also made our own house floorplan and drafted an escape route, but since my drawing skills are so lame, I decided it’s not worth posting here.<\/p>\n
When Daddy got home, Allyra was very excited to tell him all about what we did today.<\/p>\n
Thank God for youtube. Thank God for the internet. It sure makes\u00a0this homeschooling thing a lot easier. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
