This lesson introduces students to the science behind combustion and the practical importance of fire safety. Pupils define combustion as a chemical reaction, identify the three elements of the Fire Triangle, and explain how removing one element can extinguish a fire. They also compare different fire‑safety tools and evaluate which types of fires they are designed to tackle. The lesson builds secure scientific understanding while reinforcing essential safety awareness.

By the end of this lesson, students will be able to:

Define combustion as a chemical reaction

Identify the three elements of the Fire Triangle

Explain how removing one element can extinguish a fire

Compare fire safety tools for different types of fires

This ready‑to‑teach PPT and worksheet set strengthens scientific literacy, supports safe practical work and prepares students for later lessons on complete vs incomplete combustion and fuel efficiency.
