Prepare with Pedro provides an introduction for students in grades k-2 to the concept of emergency preparedness in a fun and educational way. Using storytelling, students will understand what it means to prepare, perform protective actions based on the emergency, learn and practice a coping skill, and being able to share what they learned with household members.
The presentation provides residents with the knowledge and tools to prepare for emergencies and disasters, respond accordingly, and recover to pre-disaster conditions as quickly as possible. Such topics include how to create a family evacuation plan, assemble emergency supply kits, steps to take care of your family and community and more.
