CURRICULUM
Bicycle Federation's Safe Routes to School Curriculum, Walking Wisdom and Bike Driver's Ed, is available for download here. Any nonprofit organization or school may use the materials as long as they give credit to the Bicycle Federation of Wisconsin. Permission is not given to for-profit organizations to use these materials without special permission.
Walking Wisdom and Bicycle Driver’s Ed was produced by The Bicycle Federation of Wisconsin with funding from MPS and a Safe Routes to School project funded by the National Highway Transportation Safety Administration, which was administered by the Milwaukee Police Department. Both education programs are hands-on, involve walking or biking, and include a series of homework assignments:
- Walking Wisdom, a 2 hour course taught over 2 days which focuses on pedestrian safety. This class is open to 2nd and 3rd graders.
- Bike Driver’s Ed, a ten hour course taught over ten days which focuses on street bicycle safety. This class is recommended for 5th and 6th graders but can be tailored to 7th and 8th graders.
