Talk to the children about traffic rules.

Ask questions like:

  • Do you know any traffic rules? What are they?
  • Why do we need to follow traffic rules?

Tell the children that everybody needs to follow the traffic rules.
Explain that traffic signs are one way of reminding people of the rules.
Show the four traffic signs from the set and ask the children if they can guess what they mean.
Tell them they’re going to play a game!
Place the traffic signs around the classroom and ask the children to pretend they’re each driving their own high-speed train.
Explain that they should slow down or stop when approaching marked areas.
Act as a police officer controlling the flow of traffic, or ask one of the children to do it.

Place the action bricks in random places along the track.
Now experiment with the app.
Put the train on the track and allow the children to explore the different functions of each button.
Let’s start the train!

Explain

Talk to the children about the problems they’ve seen in the app.

Ask questions like:

  • What did you see after the train passed each stop?
  • How will you solve the problem?

Elaborate

Encourage the children to play and to use all of the traffic signs.
Ask if they can think of any other important things to keep in mind in order to stay safe in traffic.
Encourage the children to create their own traffic signs or models to help keep them safe in traffic.
Have them place their creations along the track and explain why they placed them where they did.

Evaluate

Evaluate the children’s skills development by observing if they’re:

  • Identifying cause and effect relationships
  • Making predictions
  • Using strategies and planning in order to solve problems
  • Designing and expressing ideas using digital tools and technology
