In this lesson students will be introduced to essential vocabulary surrounding digital citizenship and digital safety, they will learn what is appropriate for online behavior and what types of personal information is safe to share online. Next, students will create their own poster explaining what responsible online behavior looks like and what kinds of information is safe to share online, this product can be created both digitally and/or on paper. The idea is to do the rough draft on paper and then create their poster through a digital format, however, depending on teacher preference, it can be done paper and pencil only.

This poster is a resource to remind students to keep personal information secret while online.

Students will use seven KEVA planks and their creativity to build items specified by the teacher. The lesson is designed for lower primary.  Adapted from: KEVA Educator’s Guide  https://irp-cdn.multiscreensite.com/f7460f98/files/uploaded/KEVA%20Educator%20Guide%20Lesson%20Plans.pdf

This slideshow reinforces the idea of being nice when using a computer and what to do if someone sends something to you that makes you feel uncomfortable.

This is a writing prompt choice board intended to be used in a writing center or station. In my classroom we typically use one choice board per week. Students choose up to 4 items to complete for the week. I do 4 items to give students time to finish incomplete work on Fridays, to work on final drafts, to edit a selected item, or to share their writing with peers. You can make the rules for your classroom to best suit your teaching style and your student's needs.

The choice board includes 8 prompts and one Student Choice square based on Impacts of Computing standards for first grade.

Please feel free to make a copy of the choice board and edit it to meet your specifications.
