Purposeful, Transparent, Contextual, Building Expertise

Purposeful and Transparent Students want to know how to keep their families safe. Knowing what to do in case of a fire is a very real and present circumstance for some. Contextual Their written escape plans can be shared with all family members and posted in a noticeable place so the babysitter and friends are aware of how to leave the house in case of a fire. They may choose to practice the plan with their family. Building Expertise Students will have practiced sequencing and will be thinking logically about their choices when writing their plans.
