Accidents or disasters are very likely to occur at school, and this can be worsened by the lack of comprehensive teaching materials provided to stu- dents in each grade. In grade 1, only 60% of subjects contain safety education values, and the number fluctuates from 14.3%, 90%, 100%, 87.5%, and 50% of subjects for grade 2 to 6 respectively. erefore, more efforts are needed to improve safety knowled- ge among children, especially in schools (Widowati et al., 2018b). erefore, comprehensive effort to prevent
