Road safety is not instinctive or automatic. Rather, children need to develop the skills and ability to cope with traffic and roads.
In this lesson, students are introduced to the Stop, Look, Listen, Think (SLLT) procedure to cross the road safely. Students will practice the procedure in a simulated environment and complete a worksheet about crossing the road to consolidate their learning.
This lesson supports:
Recognition of situations and opportunities to promote their own health, safety and wellbeing (VCHPEP074)
