Hello, Does anyone on the bikies list have the willingness to help middle-school kids to "learn to ride" this spring and fall?
Phy Ed teachers at Spring Harbor, Jefferson, Blackhawk, and Toki middle schools will be implementing a bike safety unit in their PE classes this April and May, and in September and October, too. The PE teachers are excited about starting this unit, but worried about how to handle kids that might not even know how to ride a bike. If they have some students that need some extra help at first, I would like to be able to put them in touch with a local volunteer who has experience with the learn to ride method described in this video<http://www.ebay.com/itm/210-Painters-Caps-White-Cotton-One-Size-fits-Most-BULK-CLEARANCE-/130867605355?_trksid=p2045573.m2042&_trkparms=aid%3D111000%26algo%3DREC.CURRENT%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D27%26meid%3D6335596710110410976%26pid%3D100033%26prg%3D1011%26rk%3D2%26sd%3D160865685973%26>. The volunteer could spend some time on a Saturday or Sunday with the kid (or kids) to get them to a point where they can balance and ride by themselves, before the PE teachers start their bike safety unit Is anyone interested in helping out? Send me an e-mail if you are. Sonia -- Safe Routes to School Coordinator Madison Metropolian School District 608-663-5454 [email protected] https://tnlweb.madison.k12.wi.us/saferoutes
