To make the most of the Internet, kids need to be prepared to make smart decisions. Be Internet Awesome teaches kids the fundamentals of digital citizenship and safety so they can explore the online world with confidence.
Students should now go to INTERLAND (Click Here) and complete "the digital adventure that puts key lessons of digital safety into hands-on practice". Make sure you click on the SETTINGS Icon in the lower right corner and TURN OFF HD Mode so it runs a little faster. Complete as many items in Interland as possible during class. Print the BE INTERNET AWESOME Pledge and take it home. Review it with your parents, and bring it in signed for credit.
When you have completed all four games you are ready to take the "Be Internet Awesome Pledge." Please take some time over the next few days to download and print the pledge (see below). This must be signed by you and a parent and returned for credit. Make sure you show this site to your family so they can understand some of the ways to be safe online as well. Good Luck!
ACADEMIC/LEARNING OBJECTIVE
Today students will be spending their time learning about online safety using the Be Internet Awesome curriculum online. They should enter the room and review the primary website to complete the DO NOW Journal Response. They should then vew the video on the site, and proceed to complete the INTERLAND online game. They can proceed at their own pace through the material, and when complete they should plan to print the BE INTERNET AWESOME PLEDGE sheet and take it home. Students should return the sheet signed by themselves and a parent for credit.
STUDENTS WILL ENTER THE CLASS QUIETLY AND BEGIN WORKING!
Students will work individually on the assigned projects. Students can discuss each part of the curriculum in groups, with partners, or on their own. Students can be paired up to facilitate differentiation, and use any accommodation or computer-based application to have the online content read to them if they require it.
