Building Safety Week Lesson Plan
Including children in Building Safety Week activities could be one of your most rewarding events this year. The Code Council is offering a free and fun lesson plan to help you teach kids about building safety and the important role your community’s code officials play in keeping them and their families safe.
Getting Started
Contact your local school and ask officials there if you could schedule time to make a presentation about building safety during Building Safety Week. Geared to children from kindergarten to third grade, the presentation is a flexible design, allowing individual variations. Offer to send them a summary of the lesson plan. Because there are visuals and handouts, the ideal venue is an individual classroom rather than an assembly hall. To fully prepare, you will need to download the Lesson Plan Summary, Presenter’s Notes and All Lesson Plan Illustrations.
Building Safety Week Lesson Plan Summary. The summary provides an overview of everything you will cover during the presentation, including objectives, hand out materials and optional activities. Download the Lesson Plan Summary.
