SENTENCE STRIP ACTIVITY
TO BE ELIGIBLE FOR THIS ACTIVITY, YOU MUST SIGN UP TO RECEIVE THE FREE TEENS IN THE DRIVER SEAT RESOURCE KIT @ www.t-driver.com.
This activity helps teens learn about their risk factors when driving by challenging them to complete sentences with the correct facts. Choose 10 facts related to one of the top risk factors for teen drivers and type into a document so that each fact is on 2 lines and can be cut in half. Make sure you are using a reputable source for your facts. Print a set of questions for each team or individual playing. Cut statements in half so that there are 2 strips for each fact.
To play, this may be done in groups or individually. For group play, divide into teams. Have each team sit together at a table or in a circle on the floor. Give each team a set of fact strips. Give teams 5 minutes to work together to match the strips to create accurate facts. When time is up, ask each team to share a fact with the class, giving them an opportunity to correct any mismatched statements. Talk about the top risk factors that lead to crashes and encourage students to discuss ways to manage these risks.
This activity can be completed multiple times; earn credit for completing the activity for each risk factor.
