Fuel Safety

• Ventilation when burning any fuel.
• Adult supervision for fire and stoves.
• Never play with matches, lighters, or knobs.
• Looking Around 3 safety rules — school and home.

Level 1 — Core idea

Verbal: If you smell gas, tell an adult — do not switch lights yourself.

Symbolic: Safety rules: ventilate + supervise + report leaks.

Visual: Poster: cross over playing with matches; tick open window.

Level 2 — Going deeper

Fire needs fuel + oxygen + heat — remove one to stop fire (intro). Keep fire extinguisher and adult help for emergencies.

NCERT anchor

NCERT Looking Around 3 emphasises safe behaviour at home. Schools run fire-safety drills — learn exit routes.

Smell gas in kitchen — what should a child do?

Step 1 — **Do not** light match or switch
Step 2 — Tell **adult** immediately
Step 3 — Open door/window if adult says so ✓

Why ventilation for wood fire indoors?

Step 1 — Smoke contains harmful gases
Step 2 — Fresh air replaces used oxygen
Answer: **Protect lungs and keep fire burning safely**

• Three fuel safety rules.
• Who lights the stove at home?
• Why open window when cooking?
• Stretch: What three things does fire need? (fuel, oxygen, heat)

Revision tip: Memorise home emergency: adult name + phone + meeting spot.

Open the Practice tab for graded questions on Fuel Safety.

• Use the platform-native live simulation or PhET-style tool for this topic (number line, Venn, physics playground, molecule builder, sensor dashboard, etc.).
• Mirror / body / home activity: physically do the concept (count objects, measure, role-play) and photograph or describe for portfolio.
• Voice or text reflection with AI Mentor: explain the concept to a younger student or family member.

• "Explain this concept to a Class 6 student using one real example from an Indian home, school, market, or festival."
• "What is one common mistake students make here, and how would you catch yourself making it?"
• Stretch: "How does this connect to coding, robotics, money, health, environment, or a future career?"

• Complete the core practice + one extension activity (photo, table, short reflection, or mini-project) for base XP + topic badge.
• 5-7 day streak or family discussion note = multiplier + visible artifact in parent/principal dashboard.
• Best real-world application stories (anonymised) featured on class or national leaderboard.

• One hands-on project or measurement using the Drishti kit or household items that makes the concept physical.
• Direct link to at least one Future Skill track (Money Management, Green Tech, Cyber Defenders, Micro-Entrepreneurship, AI Mastery, Sustainable Living, Personality Development).
• Coding extension where relevant (simple script, simulation, or data logging).

This material emphasises experiential "learning by doing", competency (apply/create/analyse), vocational exposure, critical thinking, and multidisciplinary connections. Designed to feed live worlds, AI Mentor (with memory), gamification, robotics, parent analytics, and future skills — not just exam prep.

Portfolio Evidence Idea: Your photo/table/reflection/project + one sentence on "How this helps me in real life or a possible future path."
