Hello everyone!
Today the kids had an earthquake safety practice drill. In case there were to be an earthquake here in the computer lab all the kids know what to do.
But before we get into the earthquake drill, I'd like to discuss a very important and frightening game that many children are engaging in.
The game is called Charlie, Charlie. The game which has significant traction online in recent days, involves a pair of pencils or pens, a sheet of paper and the invocation of a spirit (demonic spirit) named "Charlie."
It's important to let the children know not to play this game because it is very dangerous and could result in unknown negative implications. Please share and be aware.
Now moving on to our earthquake safety exercise...
Some things that we can do are:
- Drop, cover and hold on!
- Stay indoors until the shaking stops.
- Stay away from windows.
- If you're in bed, hold on and stay there, protecting your head with a pillow.
- If you're outdoors, find a clear spot away from buildings, trees and power lines. Then, drop to the ground.
- If you're in a car with your parents, tell them to slow down and drive to a safe place. Stay in the car until the shaking stops.
I would like to share some pictures of the kids practicing for an earthquake. Please enjoy!
