Safe Practices on a Field Trip

Safe Practices on a Field Trip Worksheet (Grade 3 Science, TEKS 3.1C)

Students learn three outdoor safety rules, circle safe or unsafe for four actions on a field trip, and circle the safe choice in two outdoor situations. Simple black-and-white doodles and big, easy-to-read text keep the focus on the thinking, not the reading.

What's Inside

• A picture strip of three outdoor rules: buddy, look, wash
• Part A: circle safe or unsafe for each action, with a worked example
• Part B: circle the safe choice in each situation, with a worked example
• Ollie the owl, a friendly guide
• A visual answer key with answers marked in red, plus a short teacher note

How Teachers Use It

Use it as a mini-lesson follow-up, a quick check, or a center. It takes 5 to 8 minutes and prints clearly in black and white. The focus skill is following safe practices during outdoor investigations.

Why It Works

Each sheet teaches the idea first, then asks students to use only what the page taught. Every activity has a done-for-you example, and students only circle, check, match, or number, so they can finish on their own. Wrong choices are believable, not silly, so students have to think.
