Why Teach Fire Safety
Did you know in 2020 home fires caused 2,580 deaths and fire departments responded to 356,500 home fires in the United States?
Teaching your students how to prevent fires and how to respond properly in a fire situation are skills your students will remember and practice throughout their lives.
This year’s Fire Prevention Week™ (FPW™) campaign, “Cooking safety starts with YOU.
Pay attention to fire prevention™,” works to educate everyone about simple but important actions they can take to keep themselves and those around them safe when cooking.
With NFPA’s Learn Not to Burn (LNTB) program you are teaching your students to recognize and avoid fire risks, helping them lead fuller and more productive lives and reaching beyond the classroom to families in this process.
LNTB reaches children using proven educational strategies that incorporate NFPA’s philosophy of teaching positive, practical fire safety messaging. Based on field- tested results, each curriculum presents key fire safety messages, classroom lessons, activities, and home connections.
