– Bicycle Safety Day –
May 22, 2006
|
|
| Alice Carlson's first ever Bicycle Safety Day was hosted by Michelle Palmer's and Rosemary Robinson's fourth-grade classes under the supervision of physical education teacher Adrienne Taylor. The event was a great success. Every class came to Bicycle Safety Day and went to various stations. They learned all about bicycles, including the 7 bicycle safety laws, how to fit a helmet, what the parts of a bike are, how to ride a bike, the parts of a brain and what they do, and what will happen if you don't wear a helmet. We hope you enjoy our website about Bicycle Safety Day! |
