Who It’s For: Language Learners Who Want to Know What to Do in Emergencies

Why You Need It: (Just about) Everybody needs access to emergency medical information.  The idea of just-in-case preparation and First Aid procedures ought to be familiar to language learners and new readers, too.  

What You’ll / They’ll Do:  

[1] Look over black-and-white facsimiles of an “Emergency Medical Information” form, a list of more or less essential kit supplies, and typical illustrated instructions for a First Aid procedure.  These are (probably) still relevant but—like most other info—could benefit from comparison to more recent advice.

[2] Collect actual, ongoing info on these and other relevant topics. Go over it together, retrieving and considering updated vocabulary and facts. Keep it handy just in case.
