Six fact sheets are contained at the back of this resource. These fact sheets provide<br />

information on:<br />

• Bushfires<br />

• Ash Wednesday<br />

• History of the CFA<br />

• Surviving a Bushfire<br />

• Safety in the Home<br />

• The CFA <strong>Fire</strong>fighter<br />

The fact sheets can be used in several ways. They provide information to support activities<br />

in the resource manual or for school/home projects.<br />

One way of planning a school/home fire safety project could include: asking the students to<br />

select a fire-related topic to research from a selection of topics listed on the board as a<br />

result of a class brainstorm. Once the topic has been selected, students then create a list of<br />

possible questions to research; teacher to include two extension questions of their own to<br />

the student's list.<br />

Provide students with a copy of a relevant fact sheet to form the basis of their research.<br />

Encourage students to obtain additional material relevant to their topic from the school or<br />

local library, their local CFA Brigade or from other sources.
