Look at some of these warning signs that are near the tracks to help us stay safe. Have students turn their paper over and choose one of these signs to include in a picture. This picture should illustrate why it is important to watch and obey warning signs around railroad tracks. Make sure your train looks larger than any cars in your picture. Once in front of the room, discuss one of the three safety messages below with each group standing in front of the class.
Some crossings have gates, lights and bells.
Always cross the tracks at the correct places. Trace a train on a large piece of butcher paper, using the train art template. Have the students decorate the locomotive with crayons, markers or paint. Inc. All rights reserved. These materials are for educational purposes only.
