Be On The Lookout!

Worksheet Description

The worksheet is a focused educational tool designed to sharpen students’ attention to road safety signs. It is titled “Be on the Lookout!” and emphasizes the importance of being alert to various road conditions and hazards. The top of the page offers a space for the student to write their name, ensuring a sense of ownership and responsibility for their learning. The instructions are clear, asking students to identify what each triangular red road sign is warning about, with a series of possible hazards listed alongside for guidance.

Each of the six red, triangular signs on the worksheet is a warning sign, characterized by a recognizable shape that indicates caution is required. The signs include warnings for an underpass, two-way traffic, grooves in the road, pedestrian crossing, roundabout/circle, equestrians, men working, and a dangerous curve. The student’s task is to match each sign with one of these conditions. This matching exercise not only helps students become familiar with these vital safety symbols but also engages them in understanding the specific actions they should take when encountering these signs on the road.
