Education represents a pedagogical process in which knowledge, systems of knowledge, values and systems of values are acquired and adopted, habits are built, cognition abilities are developed, self-education is enabled and a basis for forming own views of the world is created. In the process of education, children, young people and adults acquire very broad knowledge in different areas. They also develop their skill of practical application of knowledge and habits to the level of automated actions (skills). This builds practical working abilities and prepares young people for life and work in a certain social community.
Children represent the most vulnerable participants in road traffic. The carriers of educational work in the field of road traffic safety are parents and teachers. Therefore, special attention must be paid to the field of traffic safety in the educational process of children, especially in designing curricula.
Educational processes should be started through elementary education and then continued in secondary schools in order to gain continuity, to avoid losing a whole in the educational process.
The didactic principle "stop, look, listen, think" proved to be an unsuitable one, since traffic situations are complex and unpredictable. We cannot expect children to sit at desks in school in the "familiar, safe" environment, to passively listen to their teacher's presentation, to learn road traffic rules and signs by heart and, just according to that, to successfully cope with the "unsafe" outside environment.
The paper shows one view on how to improve road traffic education in elementary school by using theoretical knowledge of didactics and the organisation of a teaching lesson.
