Basic safety and trusted adults
Aligned to NHES 7 — SHAPE America National Standards.
What this lesson teaches
Safety rules help keep you from getting hurt, like looking both ways before crossing and wearing a seatbelt. A trusted adult is a grown-up who keeps you safe, like a parent, teacher, or police officer. If there is an emergency, you can call for help.
Worked example
If you ever got lost in a store, a safe plan is to stay where you are and look for a worker or a parent with kids to ask for help.
Practice questions
- Name one safety rule for crossing the street.
- Name two trusted adults you can ask for help.
- What do you do if there is an emergency?

Seguridad básica y adultos de confianza
Las reglas de seguridad te ayudan a no lastimarte, como mirar a ambos lados antes de cruzar la calle y usar el cinturón de seguridad. Un adulto de confianza es una persona mayor que te cuida, como un papá, mamá, maestro o policía. Si hay una emergencia, puedes pedir ayuda.
Ejemplo: Si alguna vez te perdieras en una tienda, un plan seguro es quedarte donde estás y buscar a un empleado o a un padre o madre con niños para pedir ayuda.
