What are the essential items in Molly Lynch's classroom emergency backpack?

Here are the essential items that I recommend for a classroom emergency backpack:

• First Aid Kit: For any minor injuries that might occur.
• Water Bottles: Extra hydration is always a good idea.
• Snacks: Protein bars, nuts, or crackers can help keep energy levels up.
• Flashlight: Useful in case of power outages or navigating dark areas.
• Portable Charger: To keep your phone charged for emergency updates or communication.
• Classroom Roster and Emergency Info: A list of your students' names, medical needs, and emergency contacts.
• Activities for Kids: Playing cards, outdoor chalk, classic kids card games, coloring sheets, or simple puzzles can keep students occupied.
• A Whistle: A loud whistle can help get attention in a chaotic environment.

Remember, preparation is key to handling any unexpected situations that might arise in the classroom. What other items do you think might be useful in an emergency situation?
