Drills

Tornado Drills
A tornado drill is a method of practicing to take cover in a specified location in the event that a tornado strikes an area. Generally, a signal is given, such as a series of tones. Upon receiving the signal, everyone then proceeds to a designated location, usually an interior room or corridor with no windows, and assume a protective position. Schools are required to conduct regular tornado drills.

1. Have you ever been in a situation where you had to take cover? Does your family talk where to go if you did have a tornado drill at home?
