  • Good overall Devin! Be sure to include personal thoughts within your summary and be sure to capitalize key words in your title. Also be sure to reply back to students on three different days.

  • If I were in a bus crash like this I would try and be a role model for the younge kids by trying to panic and get everyone to safety as soon as I can. As anyone I would be very scared for my life, I think that it would happen so fast I really wouldn't know what was going on.

  • if i was in the crash i would be scared and wouldnt really know what to do or what to hang on to because there isnt much to hang on to when on a bus. if i got injured i would be hurt but i would still do my best to help other people and make sure everyone is ok before the ambulance came. 

  • If I was in the crash, I would try my best to remain calm. I would most likly begin to go into panic mode and not know what to do. I would also be very scared if I got injured. I get scared very easily and dont know what to do in certain situations like that. 

  • If I was in this crash I would first make sure nothing is seriously wrong with me and make sure I don't have any major injuries. Then I would try to help other people and call 911 to get them to come as soon as possible. I would be really scared but I would need to stay calm so that I don't go into shock. 

  • I would assess my injuries and if I was stable I would help other victims by calling 911 and performing first aid. I think it would depend on the severity of my injuries but I believe I would stay rather calm during this time for the sake of others on the bus, but I would still be scared. 

  • If I was in the crash i would try and help everyone that was on the bus and make sure they are ok and call 911 and let them know what happen.

    I wouldn't be really scared I would be upset but even if I got injured i would still try and help other people.

  • I would have tried to get everyoen out as quick as possible including me, then call someone to come help us and probably the police. I would have been pretty scared but I think I would try and focus becuase freaking out only can make it worse because you don't think correctly when you are screaming and frailing around.

  • I would be very scared if I was one of the people inhured on that bus because I don't think I would be able to ride busses anymore comfortably. I would probably only take the car to school. 

    • yes i would be scared at first but i would put all that behined then start to get everyone out and away from the bus then i would call for help. Me to i would pry not go back on a bus anymore becuse this happend and probably take a car home.
