 Steps

2. Cut out bulletin board materials to be posted. A sample layout is provided but feel free to layout however you choose, making sure the educational information is correct.
3. Promote the bulletin board by sharing speed-related facts during morning announcements.
4. Plan to leave the bulletin board up for 3-4 weeks to ensure all students see it.
5. Take photos of the bulletin board with your team to post on your social media channels and tag @TeensDriverSeat so we can see your great work.
6. Submit an online activity form at t-driver.com to get credit for your efforts.
