For example, a bus will be brought to the school and the children will practice lining up, entering the bus, sitting on the bus, and exiting the bus safely following our school-wide expectations. The following modes of teaching will be used for these lessons...verbal instructions, modeling, video demonstrations, guided practice, collaborative practice, and independent practice.
