Safety Drill

We had our second safety drill.  A few months ago we did our first safety drill and practiced hiding in our classroom.
Today, we practiced another ALICE drill.  ALICE stands for Alert, Lockdown, Inform, Counter, and Evacuate.
We read our ALICE book, again.

This time, our ALICE drill was about confusing any potential intruder.  We talked about how it is a good idea to confuse an intruder by throwing things, running in zig-zag in the classroom, and yelling.

We colored an activity sheet to remind us about things we could grab and throw.

Then, we wadded up our coloring sheets.  Later that day we practiced throwing things at a pretend "intruder" while running in zig-zags and yelling to confuse our pretend intruder.

Room 408 did a good job staying calm and following directions!
