In Southern California for the fifth day straight, there are massive wildfires tearing across the region. In total, there are six wildfires. From these fires, 160,000 acres of land has been scorched this week. In an effort to control the flames, there are at least 5,700 firefighters working together to protect people. Because of these fires, there have been a total of 190,000 people evacuating their homes. A fire division chief said that people need to be ready to evacuate at a moment's notice if the flames get near. The fires have been getting so bad that President Donald Trump has declared an emergency in the state of California.
1. How would you feel if your family had to evacuate and leave your home to the flames?
2. If you had to evacuate your home, what would you bring with you?
1. If my family and I had to leave our home and evacuate the area, I would feel both sad and happy. I would be happy that we got out in time, but sad that we had to leave about everything behind.
2. If my family and I had to evacuate our home, I would make sure that we had our dog Bella and some things to remember special moments from the house like pictures and photo albums.

1. I would feel devastated. I would definitely try and keep my spirits up though.
2. Probably anything of value. And my family and pets.
i would be scared and not wanting to move to stay at my home because then we would be home less and have no where to go i would bring my phone, playstation, ipad blanked prised memories and things like that
I would be extremely devastated having to evacuate and leave my home to the flames. If I had to evacuate my home, I would make sure my whole family evacuated also and I would bring my dog with me.
I would feel horrible and extremely sad if my family had to evacuate our home. I think I would bring my valuables and electronics since those are worth the most and then I would also take as many pictures as I could as well.
Considering I'm a "stuff" girl, it would be hard to choose something on the spot like that. I would probably end up grabbing too many things and start stuffing a bag or something.
It would be pretty devastating. I'm definitely a "stuff" girl. Losing all those important, meaningful possessions would be hard. We have also done a lot of work to our house. It's our home. A lot of time and money has been put into it, and it's nice, so it would be pretty awful to lose that, too.
1. I would be scared because i would not know if i would ever see my house again.
2. Food, pictures, PS4. Those are the only important things in life. And maybe family if i had too
if my family ad to evacuate i would just try to pray that they were okay and that no harm would come to them while they evacuate. and if i had to evacuate i would bring basic stuff like my phone clothes food water and other basics.
If my family and I had to evacuate our home because of our house being on fire, I would be very disappointed but I would also be grateful that none of my family got hurt. If I had to evacuate my home I would make sure to bring my dog, work clothes, and photos because photos are irreplaceable while clothes and other items can be bought.
I would feel very sad if I had to leave my house because of a fire. I would be happy that my family is safe though. If I had to evacuate I would bring my phone for emergencies and to contact my family. I would also bring my dog.
