Description: Build essential pedestrian and community safety skills with this two-level Safe to Cross the Street Boom Cards bundle. This bundle provides differentiated practice that progresses from a foundational visual-awareness skill to making more complex street-safety decisions. Level 1: Identifying Cars Students view real-world street and crosswalk scenes and determine whether a car is present or not present. This level focuses on building visual awareness and teaching students to look for vehicles before crossing. Level 2: Is It Safe to Cross? Students build on the Level 1 skill by identifying whether a car is present and deciding whether it is safe to cross the street. Students practice recognizing safe and unsafe situations and applying pedestrian-safety concepts to real-world scenes. Together, the two levels provide a scaffolded approach to teaching an important community safety skill. Skills include: Looking for cars before crossing Identifying car/no-car situations Visual scanning and awareness Recognizing safe and unsafe crossing situations Understanding WALK and DON'T WALK signals Making pedestrian-safety decisions Building greater independence in the community Great for special education, life skills classrooms, transition programs, community-based instruction, and independent living instruction.
