Tipis were easy to put up and take down. In fact, it only took about half an hour to build a tipi. This was perfect for the Plains people who spent their time hunting and hunting animal.   The Inuit, who lived in the cold Artic region, spent part of the year living in Igloos. Igloos were temporary homes like tipis. However, they were built for the cold winter months whereas a tipi could be used year round. Both tipis and igloos had one main room that the family lived in and were usually made for a single family. Tipis and igloos were made of very different materials. Igloos were made from blocks of snow stacked on top of each other, while tipis were made of buffalo hide, tree branches or grass. The shape of tipis and igloos were also different.

A fire can be serious. But these few simple tips can help keep you safe:

Put a smoke detector on every level of your home. Check the batteries once a month. Make an escape plan with your family. Plan two ways to get out of each room in case of fire. Pick a spot to meet outside. Then practice! If your city does not have 911, know the phone number for the fire department. If there is a fire, feel a door before opening it. If it is warm, do not open it. Use another way out. Crawl low under smoke. If your clothes catch fire, stop and drop to the ground. Roll around to put out the flames.

You can guess from the text that a warm door means

• the fire is over.

• the fire is close by.

• firefighters are on the way.

• the fire is small.
