Schools in Minnesota are now required (since Fall 2023) to teach pedestrian and bicycle safety to students K-8 within the first three weeks of the school year. BikeMN's Walk!Bike!Fun! curriculum fulfills that requirement with participants receiving their own copy of the curriculum, adaptations for students of all abilities, and 8 CEUs (for educators) with completion of parts one and two.
Part one is a 2-3 hour online, self-paced training that provides an overview of the curriculum, and contains learning about Safe Routes to School, equity and justice, and a deep dive into rules of the road. This training also includes videos, quizzes, discussion questions, and time for reflection. PLEASE COMPLETE PART ONE PRIOR TO SEP 25 HERE: https://www.walkbikefun.org/teachers-school-administrators-and-community-education/attend-a-training/
Part two is a 5 hour in-person, on-bike training, to have teachers, educators, and caregivers teach and practice activities from the curriculum that students will experience. PLEASE REGISTER FOR PART TWO ON SEP 25 HERE: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/walkbikefun-in-person-training-2024-duluth-tickets-955831587007?aff=oddtdtcreator
