Adaptability and flexibility to permit the inclusion of new content, new information, and new materials as they are developed.

The provision of a sequential, comprehensive program of instruction which provides an ascending spiral effect of information, allowing for an increasing level of comprehension and complexity from kindergarten through the eighth grade.

Repetition of content areas without excessive duplication through the use of a cycling process and other appropriate methods.

The inclusion of content areas which contain physical physiological, psychological, sociological, legal, economic, and ethical aspects of fire prevention and fire safety.

Focus on content which is readily able to be integrated into standard subject areas such as math, science, and language arts.

The utilization of a concept approach, with particular emphasis on fire prevention.
