This week students in grades 3rd, 4th and 5th we will be exploring internet safety. Areas to be covered are email, chatting, social networking, search engines, downloading and password safety.
The emphasis is on cautious use and parent involvement with areas that may make a student feel uncomfortable. The website that we are using is, http://www.e-learningforkids.org/
Click on “Computer Skills” and then click on “Safe Internet Usage for Children.” You will notice that right below the children’s section is an “Internet Usage for Parents”, great information for us adults. Please browse the other areas of course work on this website and you will find many interesting courses in math, literature and science.
Or check out the PDF, Getting Started With Cyber Security Awareness, for ideas about how to help your child stay safe.
