Whitney Ave Elementary is not a bike-riding school.
This is my third week of work, just 2 days/week but it’s just the right amount.
The second grade pedestrian lesson: “Look left, right, left again. Cross if it’s safe. Keep looking left and right. Don’t run.” Repeat. Repeat. It is a challenge to keep everyone’s attention for 40 minutes.

Uh-oh, a drizzly rain started the day.
Yup, we were fairly wet by the end.
The late morning classes were cancelled.

This spring I’m going to work a few days for the Safe Routes To School educational program in San Juan Unified School District. Today was my observation day at 
to watch Dan Allison do an in-class pedestrian lesson with 2nd grade
and bicycle safety with 5th grade.
Bike Rodeo at Ella Elementary
Today I created a very simple skills course at Ella Elementary in Olivehurst which lasted about 2 hours.

Miha, Emily Alica and Kiran from WALKSacramento handled the helmet fitting and bike check station.
This boy was very excited to show me how he could sit backwards and ride his bike. He did pretty good, although Coach couldn’t really endorse this style of riding.

Dan Allison runs the Safe Routes to School program in San Juan Unified School District.
In this program, pedestrian safety is taught at grades 1-3, bicycle safety at grades 4-6.
I worked with Doug, an LCI friend, on this day. On other days, I taught pedestrian safety with Dan or Elle.
I worked 5 days either at Greer School or Whitney School. One day, a teacher came up to me to see if I remembered her. Yes! Sheena Guy Smith from Westside and Westside Charter School. Now a second grade teacher at Whitney.
