This vibrant educational wall poster outlines a step-by-step earthquake drill procedure designed for schools. It aims to help students and teachers prepare for earthquakes through clear, illustrated instructions divided into five main steps:
-
Scheduling Drills: Encourages all teachers to coordinate and conduct earthquake drills regularly, at least every three months.
-
Warning Signal: Explains how to use a bell or slit drum to signal the start of the drill and highlights the importance of inclusive signals for children with hearing disability.
-
Drill Practice: Demonstrates safety actions like Drop, Cover, Hold On, covering heads while evacuating, following orderly evacuation rules, and assembling in a pre-agreed safe location.
-
Post-Drill Review: Suggests returning to class for a fun review activity using True or False cards to reinforce learning.
-
Home Simulation: Encourages students to conduct the simulation at home with their families and share their experiences in class the next day.
The poster uses engaging visuals and easy-to-understand language to reinforce earthquake safety habits and promote preparedness among school communities. It is a useful resource for display in classrooms, school hallways, or common areas to support disaster risk education and inclusive safety practices.
