Longfellow's WHALE Tales with the American Red Cross In-Person
The American Red Cross believes that one way to help reduce drowning incidents among children ages 5 through 12 is to teach water safety education in elementary schools and other youth programs. The American Red Cross created Longfellow’s WHALE Tales to help teachers and youth leaders teach children about safe behavior in, on and around the water. The materials in the Longfellow’s WHALE Tales K–6 Educational Packet are designed to give children an awareness of being safe around the water and to help promote healthful aquatic recreation.
The American Red Cross Longfellow’s WHALE Tales lessons teach children about water safety when they are at pools, waterparks, oceans, lakes, and rivers. It teaches them about water hazards around the home and neighborhood and covers sun safety, boating safety and much more. The program features fun animated videos and activity worksheets. There are several topics that are covered. Water is not needed to do the program.
This program is in partnership with the American Red Cross.
