Teacher Harriet warns everyone that the alarm will be loud and when they hear it, they should "stop and listen to stay safe."
Daniel and his classmates continue playing as they wait for the alarm to sound. They pretend that they are firefighters helping panda bears which leads Daniel to make-believe that he is a real firefighter.
The alarm sounds and everyone listens to instructions from Teacher Harriet. Together, Daniel and his friends move outside safely as the Neighborhood firefighters arrive to complete the drill. Before going back inside, everyone has a turn sitting on the "fire trolley."
