This is an unplugged worksheet activity to walk students through the process of building strong, easy to remember, passwords.

This slideshow will help students to identify and use strong passwords, and explain why strong passwords should be used (e.g., protect name, address, and telephone number). It walks students through a process that can be used to create strong, easy to remember, passwords.

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.   

A simple lesson plan to introduce Cyber Security and creating strong passwords for online use. 

An interacitve Poster to help start a class disucussion on ways to stay safe when using technolgoy and the internet. 

Today we do lots of activities online. Students need to know the importance of having a secure password to keep their information safe when using the internet. In this lesson students will learn to make a safe password with a hands on activity.

Watch and explore the different ways the mouse can move (back- and- forth, circular, straight, spinning), try to remember the password pattern to guess the correct password. The stronger and more difficult the code, the harder the password pattern will be to crack. Create a strong pattern so your classmates don’t crack your code!

Today we do lots of activities online. Students need to know the importance of having a secure password to keep their information safe when using the internet. In this lesson students will learn to make a safe password with a hands on activity.

This hands-on lesson merges digital safety concepts with Virginia state symbols and allows students to construct their own three-dimensional learning landscape with fun materials like Legos and model magic.

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.

The teacher will introduce/ reiterate the importance of usernames and passwords. At the beginning of the year students receive their username and password for their personal school devices or for logging into the school equipment.
This activity allows students to locate and color the keys on the keyboard to help them with the initial login process and remembering their username and password.

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 Cybersecurity standards for first grade.

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