Teaching personal safety skills is very important for children today. The Got 2B Safe! Think Smart and Take Charge! program teaches children tools that can increase personal safety. I will integrate the program into the curriculum through four phases.

In Phase I, the Got 2B Safe! Think Smart and Take Charge! program will be introduced to my students’ parents by inviting them to the school for a presentation. I will give the parents an overview of the lessons that I will be teaching throughout the year and suggest valuable resources.

During Phase II, I will engage the students in lessons using the Got 2B Safe! Think Smart and Take Charge! materials. Throughout the lessons, I will emphasize the “Four Rules Of Safety”.

For Phase III, we will have a series of safety speakers for a week during the school year. Each day, representatives from the local police and fire departments, the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children, or various community members will come to the school to offer helpful tips and valuable information.

The final phase will encompass a student safety contest. Students will be instructed to design a border for the school bulletin board that illustrates the “Four Rules Of Safety”. The winner will have their border displayed for the school year.
