ACTIVITIES

The Prevention Education Working Team's members are dedicated to teaching children and young adults about the responsible use of fire in the forest. The devastating effects of wildfires on both the forest and communities can be prevented with some basic knowledge about fire science. Understanding these basics and learning a few practices used by firefighters can be quite fun.

The following are activity sheets and links developed by the PEWT that can be used either at home or in the classroom for a variety of ages.

PLANES FIRE & RESCUE

"When world-famous air racer Dusty learns that his engine is damaged and he may never race again, he must shift gears and is launched into the world of aerial firefighting. Dusty joins forces with veteran fire and rescue helicopter Blade Ranger and his team, a bunch of all-terrain vehicles known as The Smokejumpers. Together, the fearless team battles a massive wildfire, and Dusty learns what it takes to become a true hero." (IMDb, 2014)
