Today, I’m excited to share a very special book all about school safety—Teacher, Did You Hear the News? This wonderful picture book by Sanya Whittaker Gragg, helps kids understand what happens during safety drills at school, like fire drills, lockdowns, and tornado drills. It’s a perfect read for little learners who might feel nervous or curious about these important practices.
🚨Why Safety Drills Matter 🚨
Safety drills are an essential part of every school day, even if they sometimes feel a bit noisy or confusing. They help teachers and students practice what to do if there’s an emergency, so everyone stays safe. Teacher, Did You Hear the News? gently explains these drills with friendly characters and reassuring words, making the whole idea easier for young children to understand.
