Pbs Learning Media: The Lowdown: After the Fires: North Bay Teachers and Students Talk Disaster Prep Lesson Plan

Curated by ACT

Wildfires burned whole neighborhoods in Northern California in a matter of minutes. In Texas, Florida and Puerto Rico, hurricane winds and flood waters wreak havoc on buildings, power lines and roads. No community is entirely safe from natural disasters, but there are actions everyone can take to be better prepared. Through the stories of teachers and students affected by the devastating wildfires in Sonoma County, this lesson plan focuses on ways to prepare for a disaster and how to respond and help rebuild once the immediate danger has passed.
