STEP ONE: SAFETY DISCUSSION (10 MINUTES)

Begin by having a broad discussion about safety topics. The goal is to get children to understand the concept of safety and begin thinking about what defines safe and unsafe situations. Explain to students that safety is taking actions to avoid getting hurt and finding a safe place free from harm or danger.

Discussion Questions:

• What do you think safety is?

• Who are some people that help keep you safe?

• What decisions have you made to be safe?

• What decisions could you make to be safe?
