Lesson option [PDF] [DOCX]
Presentation [PDF] [PPTX]

Additional material for teachers [PDF] [DOCX]
Goal: creating a culture of safe behavior on the roads.
Tasks:
- to form in children an understanding that traffic rules are the law for all road users;
- teach children to navigate the “Rules of the Road”;
- form a clear idea of pedestrian discipline;
- to form in children a negative attitude towards violators of traffic norms and rules;
- teach how to create a safe route “Home - school - home”.
Equipment: multimedia equipment, laptop, tablet; sheets with diagrams of the territory of the district where the educational organization is located; felt-tip pens, colored pencils.
The methodological material is of a recommendatory nature. Taking into account the characteristics of each class, the teacher can vary the tasks, their number and stages of the lesson.
For reference:
Road accidents are one of the serious problems in our society, and it is believed that one of the reasons for this problem is the lack of culture of road users: their lack of discipline and non-compliance with traffic rules.
Question:
How do you think traffic rules and personal safety are related?
Based on the students’ answers, the class teacher formulates the purpose and objectives of the class hour.
Questions:
- What do you know about traffic rules?
- Why do you need to know and follow these rules?
- Who are road users?
The teacher determines the level of children's knowledge of traffic rules and comments on the students' answers.
The teacher talks about the Traffic Rules of the Russian Federation, focusing in more detail on the section “Responsibilities of Pedestrians” (see “Additional Material for Teachers”).
Exercise:
Look at the slide and explain the rule for crossing the road.
Questions:
- What is a crossroads?
- Why is an intersection dangerous for pedestrians?
- What rules must be followed when crossing an intersection?
Questions:
- What do traffic lights mean?
- What does a flashing yellow traffic light signal indicate?
- How to cross the street if the traffic light is flashing yellow?
Question:
- Why do you have to look when crossing the roadway, turning your head to the right and left, even if there are no cars on the road at the moment?
Question:
- Why can't you play on the road or near the road?
(You can hold a competition among students: name the greatest number of reasons why you can’t play on the road.)
Discussion of the situation:
- What is the danger of the situation depicted on the slide?
- What traffic rules were violated?
Question:
- What is the danger of the situation depicted on the slide?
Question:
- Why can't you walk on the roadway?
Assignment for students:
The slide names only one of the reasons why children get into accidents at stops more often than at intersections. Give other examples.
Exercise:
The class is divided into three groups. Each group receives the task of working with the rules of behavior for pedestrians and drawing up a safe route “Home - school - home”. To complete the task, the groups are given sheets with diagrams of the territory of the district of the educational organization.
Each route being developed can be discussed in class, where a group of students - the developers of the route sheet - must explain its content.
The class teacher talks about recommendations for developing a route sheet, which combines diagrams and descriptions of the route of schoolchildren from home to school and back.
The main goal of the route sheet is to improve the student’s traffic safety and teach him how to navigate traffic situations.
Having chosen a movement option, students plot it on a map of the streets from home to school.
The class teacher draws the attention of students to the fact that if the route includes a trip by public transport, then the diagram should show the location of the streets near the house (place of boarding public transport) and the location of the streets near the school (place of exit from public transport and movement to school ).
Students, while completing the task, highlight areas of increased danger on the diagram.
This is usually:
- leaving the house and crossing the street for the first time;
- crossing streets and intersections;
- boarding and exiting public transport (stop).
Areas of increased danger on non-recommended travel options are highlighted to explain why they are dangerous and why they are not recommended.
The class teacher draws the attention of schoolchildren to the description in the route of crossing the street if it is not regulated by a traffic light.
The class teacher draws the students' attention to the description in the route of crossing the street if it is regulated by a traffic light.
Students, working in groups, discuss the characteristics of the streets along which they walk to school.
Students remember the rules for boarding public transport, if necessary, enter this information into the route sheet.
Students remember the rules for exiting public transport and, if necessary, enter this information into the route sheet.
At the end of the group work, they are asked to think and answer the question “What should I title this slide?”
(You can hold a competition for the best slide title.)
At the final stage of the class hour, situational problems are considered for reflection (application). Students receive individual assignments. These can be text or test tasks (application).
The class teacher sums up the class hour.
Travel speed
(Article: 10. Movement speed)
10.1. The driver must drive the vehicle at a speed not exceeding the established limit, taking into account the intensity of traffic, the characteristics and condition of the vehicle and cargo, road and meteorological conditions, in particular visibility in the direction of travel. If a traffic hazard arises that the driver is able to detect, he must take possible measures to reduce the speed until the vehicle stops.
10.2. In populated areas, vehicles are allowed to move at a speed of no more than 60 km/h, and in residential areas and courtyard areas no more than 20 km/h.
10.3. Movement outside populated areas is permitted:
- for cars and trucks with a permissible maximum weight of no more than 3.5 tons on highways - at a speed of no more than 130 km/h, on other roads - no more than 90 km/h.
Driving through intersections
If you have practical driving
relatively normal, you just have to be careful not to interfere with those moving on the right, because they always have the advantage. The “right hand” advantage operates where there are no traffic lights, signs, markings, or other indicators that directly regulate traffic.
When approaching an intersection, look at the signs and be prepared to change lanes in advance. It is advisable to choose the route in advance.
When turning left, give way to oncoming people. Always and everywhere give way to pedestrians.
