• Have the students write a small script in which they act out/present their<br />

scenario(s) to the class.<br />

Design a poster/comic strip that goes with one of the scenarios presented in<br />

class; post it in the classroom or in the school or community newspaper.<br />

• Educator <strong>and</strong> students may play a game called ‘Red Light/Green Light’.<br />

Everyone lines up on a straight line <strong>and</strong> faces the leader (who is across the<br />

room). When the leader shows the ‘WALK’ symbol, all of the children<br />

advance (walk) until the leader shows the ‘DON’T WALK’ symbol, then all of<br />

the children need to stop. If a student is caught walking during the ‘DON’T<br />

WALK’ symbol, they need to take 3 steps backwards. The first student to<br />

reach the leader becomes the next leader.<br />

• Educator may order, free of charge, student workbooks entitled ‘Walk the<br />

Talk’ from Alberta Transportation (www.saferoads.com).<br />
