During the first trimester, each class completed a lesson focused on internet safety and responsibility. These lessons are one way we are trying to build Digital Citizenship skills. Simply put, digital citizenship refers to staying safe and being respectful online, as well as using technology in the most appropriate way. For the 2nd trimester, our digital citizenship lessons focused on the following areas:
Kindergarten: Staying safe online by only visiting "kid friendly" websites.
First Grade: Using a picture dictionary to find information online.
Second and Third Grades: Using keywords correctly when searching for specific information on Google.
The following website provides a wonderful curriculum of digital citizenship lessons, as well as tips and resources for parents.
