Students can act out their own safety tips in pairs—one giving the rule and the other acting it out, just like Officer Buckle and Gloria. They can also make safety signs to hang around the school to show peers ways to be safe.
Officer Buckle and Gloria (Picturebook, Caldecott Medal, 1995) tells the story mostly through its pictures. The bright colors make the book cheerful and fun. The round shapes of the characters make them look friendly. The smooth lines keep the pictures clear and easy to follow. The composition puts Gloria‘s silly actions in the center, so the pictures show the humor.
I would use this book with elementary students. This book talks about safety in a way where children would listen and pay attention. It would mean more if you had a police officer come in to read to your students.
Picture book (1995) Peggy Rathmann‘s illustrations in Officer Buckle and Gloria are a delightful blend of humor and warmth. The cartoon-style watercolor and ink artwork employs brilliant colors and creative use of white space, engaging readers in the story's humor and warmth. Gloria's impish antics behind Officer Buckle's back add a layer of comedy, contrasting with his earnest safety tips.

We do not care that Momma made said woman "quiver." We do care that we missed it, though. We would have loved to watch. ✊?✊?

Oh no! I nearly forgot about #wdncw since this actually happened on Monday.
We do not care that your horn works. WE didn‘t run the stop sign. YOU DID. We were just minding our own business and going to Michael‘s for thread.
