Anti-Idling Lesson Plans & Activities

A screenshot of an anti-idling PowerPoint with several images: one in the top left corner of a girl with a backpack getting into a car, one in the top right corner of a car at a stop sign, and one in the bottom right corner of a server handing a driver change through a drive-through window.

RideWise recently had the wonderful opportunity to partner with a local Girl Scout, Scarlett D’Aprile, on her Gold Award, the highest award available in Girl Scouts. For her project, Scarlett created activities and lesson plans for students, both in younger grades and in high school driver’s education classes, focusing on anti-idling and the effect of gas-powered vehicles on air quality.

Below are several anti-idling lesson plans and activities Scarlett created that you can use with your students, Girl Scout/Boy Scout troop, or club/organization. For any questions or additional resources, email staff@ridewise.org.
