Internet Safety

Listening to the news and reading the paper lets you know that we need to keep up and be aware of whats new on the internet. One of the resources I use is Common Sense Media. This site reviews books, movies, websites and more. They also give you tips for keeping up with all of the different types of media. Click on http://www.commonsensemedia.org for more information. At school we are using iSafe curriculum to work with the students. One of our parents has a site as well.... http://www.cybersafefamily.com . Click on her site for more information on being safe using the internet with children. Additional resources used in the classroom include Easy Tech and BrainPop. We are making sure that our students know how to be safe on the internet. Check out the technology links for Web 2.0 on the RCE page...we've found some more fun tools for the students to try. Fifth grade students used many of these as we began working on their Memory CD for graduation.
