Hi everyone! 👋

Today, we’re focusing on how to show respect, responsibility, and safety while riding the school bus. The bus is an extension of our school, and the way we behave there matters just as much as it does in the classroom.

Let’s think about this:

🔹 What are some examples of positive behavior on the bus?
🔹 What might happen if students don’t follow the rules on the bus?
🔹 Why is it important to listen to the bus driver and stay in your seat?

💬 Your Turn:
Share one example of a time you or someone else showed great behavior on the bus or a time when things didn’t go so well and what could’ve been done differently.

Let’s learn from each other and make our bus rides safe and enjoyable for everyone! 🚌✨
