How do I go about asking the judge for a defered finding?

Basically, I was taking my children to school and my 6 year old took his seat belt off and as I reached behind me to grab him I inadvertantly went down on the gas and was clocked going 35 in a 25 mph school zone. What I would like to do on my court date is ask the judge to allow an entrance of a defered finding so that I can attend a safety class on driving, receive the certificate, and then come back to court to show proof that I attended and passed-this will allow my record to stay clean of any negative points and wont raise my insurance.

What is the best way to ask the court for this? Should I have a copy of my driving record with me so he can see my history is clean and are there any other forms I should have pre filled out? thanks.
