Wildfire Rages Near Los Angeles

Article: A wildfire has scorched forests near Los Angeles, forcing people from nearly 900 homes to evacuate today. The fire has ravaged 1,700 acres in suburbs just north of Los Angeles. Several schools and colleges in the area were also evacuated. Three men have admitted to starting the fire by setting a campfire, which sparked the blaze. At least one of the men are homeless. They have been arrested. Click here for pictures of the devastation.

Discussion:

  • When there is a wildfire, what is at danger of being hurt? (Houses, people, animals, trees)
  • Have you ever seen a forest after a fire? If not, imagine. What does it look like? What does it smell like? 
  • What crime are the men possibly being arrested for?
