  Case: Fire Drills
My class does not take fire drills seriously. No matter how often I say to them, although fire drills are for practice, we still must follow protocol as if it was a real one they still act up. Embarrassed as my class is the only class running and talking during the drill, I've tried everything that I've seen suitable to get them to do right. What should I do?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
One thing to do is to tell your class when fire drills are coming up and to set expectations. Also give incentives and possibly consequences depending on the behavior. Praise the students who did well and remind them of why the fire drills are so important.
