Throughout this Project you will be working in small teams to create Internet Safety “Lessons” designed for First and Second Graders. At the end of the quarter you will share your Lessons with the class and submit them for a grade. 

Internet Safety Topics:
1. Communication (text, games, email)
2. Searching Safely 
3. Private Information
4. Cyberbullying
5. Copyright (giving credit)
6. Social Media and Online Profile
7. Wireless Networks
8. Protecting your Computer

Check out the videos below as a reminder of these topics.

Once you have watched the videos you will choose your top three Topics of interest. I will do my best to match everyone to one of their top three choices. You will be put into groups of three (3) based on your common interest of topic choice.

Step 1: Find the real problem. Ask a 1st or 2nd grade teacher, or survey younger students, what they already know and what confuses them about your topic. Plan your lesson to solve that problem.

Each group will need to produce Learning Activities for the lesson. These can include:

  • videos
  • worksheets
  • vocabulary
  • games
  • movie
  • activities
  • posters
  • practice
  • quiz
  • puzzles
  • certificates
  • or something else that I will need to approve.
