Smart Moves can mix and match the following presentations to suit your classroom's program. Contact us to discuss unique blends or unlisted topics.
Rolling Classroom
Has your group ridden on an Intercity Transit bus before? We can introduce them to the driver, take them to the shop to see the engine, fuel, inner-workings of the buses and maybe go through the bus wash!
These mini-lessons are embedded in all rolling classroom presentations:
Citizenship and Public Resources
Who’s bus? Your bus! We can discuss public amenities like the transit service, road maintenance, and more.
Energy and Alternative Fuels
What is a hybrid vehicle? What is biodiesel and where does it come from? How do the fuels we burn relate to our air quality and climate?
Health and Transportation
How is public transportation related to increases in air quality? How does increased air quality affect our health?
Offered on request:
Design and Development
How is sustainable design related to public transportation? What does the future look like in terms of density and traffic corridors? What is a “complete street” and what kind of transportation does it support? How do we encourage alternative transportation around schools? Why are schools an important focus?
Experiments and Demonstrations
Emissions
Help students understand the proportions emissions and how they’re generated.
Speed of Traffic
With radar guns, polling, and other class exercises Smart Moves can help students understand the speed of traffic and how it relates to their safety and the safety of their community.
