What this worksheet teaches
A bus schedule turns reading practice into a practical travel skill. Use this worksheet to introduce schedule information, then connect the lesson to a current timetable from your local transit provider.
Practice locating information in a schedule rather than reading every item in order.
Encourage learners to point to the information they used to answer each prompt.
Discuss what to check before traveling, including the correct route, day, and current timetable.
