Severe Weather Safety Precautions Presenters: Elizabeth Lee Veronica Estes GLCE- E.ES Describe precautions that should be taken for human safety during severe weather conditions (thunderstorms, lightning, tornadoes, high winds, blizzards, and hurricane.)

Engage the Learner Ask students if they know what a tornado or lightning/thunder storm is or if they have ever experienced a serious storm. Then read a story on a severe weather condition. Some good selections for reading are Tornadoes or Hurricanes by Gail Gibbons.

Explore the Concept Divide the students into groups and give them a situation and a severe weather condition. As a group have them write down what they would do during their weather circumstance.

Explain the Concept Safety & Prep Tips y&from=gn_six_welcome Definitions: The National Weather Service issues a tornado watch if conditions are right for tornadoes and a tornado warning when a trained spotter or Doppler radar spots a tornado or tornado signature. Tornado- a violent windstorm Hurricane- a tropical cyclone with winds 74 mph (119 km) Lightning/Thunder Storm- a storm that is accompanied by lightning and thunder Go over the safety precautions for each severe weather situation. (Show safety positions for the Tornado drill and other types of drills.)

Tornado Drill

Elaborate on the Concept Have the students take home a safety plan sheet to work on with their family. Students should share with their family what they learned in class and bring back the safety plan sheet the following day.

Evaluate Students will complete worksheet of matching severe weather conditions with safety precautions. When a practice drill is in place the students will have to show the correct positions to be in during that given weather situation.
