Write “1 - Stop”, “2 - Drop”, and “3 - Roll” on the board. Tell the children that these three words will help if
a person’s clothes ever catch on fire. Explain the steps as follows: Stop means stop where you are. Drop
means drop to the ground and lay flat with your legs out straight, cover your eyes and mouth with your
hands. Roll means roll over and over and back and forth until the fire is out. Tell the children that once
they have done these three steps they must then get the help of a grown-up right away.
. Stand in front of the class and attach an inflated balloon to your clothes using masking tape. Explain to
the children that the balloon represents fire that must be put out and you are going to show them the
correct way to stop, drop, and roll. Carefully demonstrate each step of the process, explaining the actions
as they are being done, until the entire process has been completed. (The balloon will pop as you roll.)
Stand up and show the class that the flames on the clothes (balloon has popped) have now been put
out. Remind the class that it is now time to get the help of a grown-up.
Have children come up and demonstrate the same process, using a balloon as the flame to reinforce that
they should only stop, drop, and roll if their clothes are on fire.
Give each child the “Stop, Drop, and Roll” steps activity sheet. Have the children draw a picture represent-
ing the steps in the process. The sheet has four boxes to remind the students that the fourth step of get-
ting help from a grown-up is a very important step.
. Tell the children that they are now going to explore some fire safety situations that they will need to
solve. Use the “Stop, Drop, and Roll” cards, allowing one child at a time to choose a card and share it with
the class. Together, decide the correct response. The students should only respond with “stop, drop, and
roll” when the card shows a person’s clothes are on fire. Address inappropriate responses by describing
appropriate ways to solve the problem. If the child chooses a card for which stop, drop, and roll is appro-
priate have them model the steps for the class.
Review the “Stop, Drop, and Roll” K-W-L chart and add new learning. Address any misconceptions that
students may have had about appropriate times to stop, drop, and roll.
. Reinforce that the best way to stay safe is to never have to use stop, drop, and roll. Avoiding any flames
that could catch clothes on fire is important.
