Click the fortune cookie to read a motivational Thought for the Day. If you like the Thought, you can save it to your home page for safe keeping. From there, you can print out bookmarks with the saying on them. The bookmarks require you to have the free Adobe Reader software. You probably already have this software installed on your computer.

Log My Trips

This page serves as your personal commute log. Each day you can fill in how you got to and from school. If you rode your bike or walked for fun or exercise, you can enter those miles, too. Finally, you can record a "thought for the day" in your journal. Click "Save" to save your information. You can edit it later if you wish.

You can access different days of the week by clicking on the green tabs of the notebook. You can only access days of the current week. Every Monday, the log switches over to the next week. You won't be able to edit your log for days older than that.

The "View My Trips" and "View My Journal" shows you everything you have ever entered in your log to date.

Activities

The Activities page features three fun learning games you can play as often as you like. Your last and high scores will always be recorded, and you can compete with yourself or other students on the site.

Concentration - Match up the tiles in as few moves as possible.

Word Search - Find the hidden words before time runs out. Words can run diagonal, up, down, across, or backwards.

The Lunchalyzer - The goal of this activity is to pack a nutritious lunch. You will experiment by selecting items and blending them together so the mixture can be analyzed. Drag your food items into the blender, and click the Blend button. The scientist will analyze your mixture using his laser device, and give you results and recommendations.

The Activities require the free Flash plug-in from Macromedia. You probably already have this plug-in installed in your browser. You may need to upgrade if you are using a version older than version 8. Download and installation is quick and easy: Click here to upgrade now.

Quiz

The "Smart Routes Academy" Quiz tests your knowledge of road safety, air pollution, and other transportation and health related topics. Click "Start Academy" to read and answer the first question. If you answer correctly, you will go on to the next question. If you answer incorrectly, you must try again.
