Preparing for a Bushfire Checklist

Overview

Preparing for a Bushfire is a worksheet designed to teach students about bushfire safety. Students will evaluate a list of tasks and identify which actions are helpful or risky in preparing for a bushfire.

Learning Objectives

• Recognise key safety practices for bushfire preparation.
• Develop critical thinking by analysing actions.
• Explain reasoning clearly through written responses.

How the Activity Works

Students review a checklist of tasks that someone in a bushfire-prone area might consider. For each task, they will decide if it’s helpful or risky, marking it with a tick or a cross. Finally, they’ll choose two tasks from the list to explain their reasoning in detail, reinforcing their understanding of bushfire safety.
