WalkSafe Teacher Program

Module 4 – Safe Routes & Sharing the Road

GRADES 3 AND UP

In Walksafe Module 4, geared towards Grade 3 and up, Students will learn the importance of sharing the road to ensure everyone is safe and the concept of right of way, and how right of way applies to pedestrians and motorists at intersections. Students will learn how to plan safer walking routes, and apply this knowledge during a short walk around the neighborhood, during which important road safety tips and rules will be reviewed (i.e., five steps to crossing, where to walk, visual barriers).  Students will then take the RoadSmarts pledge and are encouraged to spread the word about being safe to their friends and family.
