Safe Routes to School

K-5 Curriculum Pilot Training

2019-2020

Walking or rolling to school are the healthiest modes of transportation for people and the planet. To reach this conclusion, students learn about the risks and benefits of various types of transportation, the infrastructural features and challenges of their neighborhood and community, and methods to implement solutions to foster a healthy and safe lifestyle.

This K-5 curriculum is standards-aligned and integrated across content areas. It was designed by the San Mateo County Office of Education (SMCOE) STEAM Center Team in partnership with the SMCOE Safe Routes to Schools program. It is our hope that teachers will deliver this curriculum to encourage students to choose modes of transportation that are healthy for people and the planet, and to take action in their communities to create solutions to ensure safe routes to and from school.
