This exit slip should be used after teaching computing systems vocabulary to check for student understanding of concepts covered. 

Students will create a strong password to access a computer and/or website. The password must meet specific criteria. Once the students master the criteria, they will reveal their secret password with their teacher, using a highlighter and a blacklight.   

Students will use a familiar method of communication, writing, to understand the purpose and potential uses of an electronic method of communication- a blog. 

This lesson supports first graders in their understanding of password safety and its importance. The lesson incorporates a short 3 minute video, discussion questions, whole class model of making a safe password, and an activity for students to practice making a strong password on their own.
The lesson is approximately 30 -45 minutes in length. It can be split into small portions or completed all at one time.

Students will be introduced to computer science words in conjunction with similar standards already taught in English SOLs.  They will see how actions in a plot are similar to events in a code and how cause and effect is similar to events that trigger actions.  Prewriting will take place as they create a plan and codes for an Ozobot maze.

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 or to work on final drafts. 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 Computing Systems for first grade.

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