How to Wait Safely for the School Bus

Students answer yes/no and WH-questions, complete sequencing tasks, retell the video using visual supports, and practice identifying safe choices. The resource also includes problem-solving scenarios that help students identify unsafe behaviors, determine the size of the problem, and choose appropriate solutions. Additional activities support language development, such as categorization, compare/contrast, and utterance expansion using prepositions and present progressive verbs. These engaging tasks help deepen understanding and promote safe, respectful behavior at the bus stop and while boarding the school bus.
