The Pillowcase Project
Hi, my name is Ms. Daniels!
I am a volunteer with the American Red Cross and I am excited to be here with you today for The Pillowcase Project!Slide29
The Pillowcase Project
Have you heard about the American Red Cross before?Slide30
The Pillowcase Project
Great!
So can someone raise their hand and tell me something the Red Cross does?Slide31
The Pillowcase Project
Yes, we do all those things! There is a Red Cross responsible for every community in the United States and we help people donate blood, teach people how to swim and do CPR, respond to emergencies, and teach classes like I am today!Slide32
The Pillowcase Project
I noticed you also mentioned that sometimes we help people after a fire. That is a wonderful answer.
The Red Cross actually responds to more home fires than any other emergency. We help people find a place to stay and continue going to work or school even if they had a fire.Slide33
The Pillowcase Project
So, even though the main focus of our time together today is going to be about a different emergency– hurricanes– I want to spend a few moments talking about Home Fire Safety. We like to talk about Home Fire Safety whenever we can because it is very important to us that you know how you can help prevent a home fire, and what you should do in case one happens.Slide34
Hilary: Fire SectionSlide35
Home Fire Safety
Adults should test smoke alarms once a month
Use My Preparedness Workbook to plan a family evacuation plan and schedule a time to practice it
You should crawl in a fire because smoke rises
Always test doors for heat before opening it
If possible, identify 2 exits out of each room in your home and practice leaving from these during your family evacuation practiceSlide36
The Pillowcase Project
Great, thank you for reviewing Home Fire Safety with me!
Now let me tell you more about what we’re going to talk about today: The Pillowcase Project. Slide37
The Pillowcase Project
We are going to learn about hurricanes and what you and your family and friends can do to prepare and handle an earthquake if it ever happens here. At the end, you’ll get your very own Disney Pillowcase to decorate and keep with all your supplies!Slide38
The Pillowcase Project
So what is the Pillowcase Project?
Let me tell you a story about how it all started…..Slide39
History of the Pillowcase ProjectSlide40
Learn, Practice, Share!Slide41
Learn, Practice, Share
Who here plays a sport or an instrument?
When you started, did someone first teach you a skill so you could learn your sport or instrument?Slide42
Learn, Practice, Share
Right! That’s an important first step for any new skill.
Then, you practiced your sport or instrument a lot so you could learn it better and get better at it, right?Slide43
Learn, Practice, Share
Practice does make perfect, that’s for sure.
So once you got pretty good at your instrument or sport, did you ever share it with someone? You probably had a family member or friend come watch you play in a game or at a rehearsal? Maybe you even taught a friend or a younger sibling how to shoot a basketball or play drums? Slide44
Learn, Practice, Share
Good for you!
So learning about preparing for and handling emergencies is kind of the same. Today, we’re going to learn, practice, and then talk about how to share what we learned and practiced so you can help prepare other people too! Sound good?Slide45
Hilary: Learn, Practice, ShareSlide46
How does an earthquake happen?
Santa Ana, CASlide47Slide48
The Pillowcase Project
So today, as I mentioned before, we are going to
learn
about earthquakes.
As you can see on this map, California is at risk for earthquakes. You’ve probably even heard about them on the news, right?Slide49Slide50Slide51Slide52Slide53Slide54Slide55

Coping Skills
So we just talked my friend, Bob, and you suggested some great things that I could tell him to help him through his frustration about the earthquake messing up his belongings.Slide62
Coping Skills
Now, let’s talk specifically about Coping Skills. Coping Skills is just a big term we use that includes things you just mentioned, like breathing deeply or knowing what to do in an emergency.Slide63
Coping SkillsSlide64
Coping Skills
Today, we’re going to
learn
one specific Coping Skill that may be new for everybody.
You’ll be able to use this skill any time you are scared or stressed out. Later, you can even teach it to your friends , siblings, and family to help them too!Slide65
Coping Skills
Breathing with Color:
This activity leads students through a 5 minute deep breathing exercise. Colors are used as a way for younger students to visualize good air coming in, and bad air going out. This activity takes a lot of practice to be comfortable with and calm enough during leading to make it successful.
Symbol of Strength:
This activity teaches students about intangible inner strength and guides them in identifying, picturing, remembering, and using their inner strength. This item, person, memory, or idea can be brought to mind and used to help them feel better in times of fear or stress.Slide66
Breathing with Color

Coping Skills
Remember…
Speak slowly and clearly.
Relate ambiguous concepts, like coping or strength, to real, concrete experiences or objects that students can relate to.
Acknowledge any ideas, stories, or thoughts that students offer but redirect them to the activity at hand if they are concerning or off-topic.
Use the classroom quiet signal students are familiar with to regain composure and attention.Slide72
