I’m walking along a busy beach in Thailand. Many families and friends are enjoying themselves. It’s been many years since a tsunami happened here. The tsunami was terrible, but there were lots of touching moments. Some people, like Tilly Smith, saved lives bravely with their knowledge. This clever 10-year-old girl saw the water going farther up the beach. It wasn’t calm. She knew that a tsunami was coming. She learnt about tsunamis at school two weeks earlier. Tilly warned people on the beach. So they all ran to a hotel. Minutes later, the tsunami hit. That school lesson saved about 100 lives. Knowledge can make a big difference between life and death.
Let’s follow the tape and read.

Drones: Useful Helpers in Disasters
These are drones. They’re made of light things like plastic and metal. When disasters happen, drones help a lot: they take photos and videos to show how bad the disasters are, give useful info to emergency workers, and find survivors. Also, they can send medicine and food fast.
Drones are really helpful in crises!
