There are a lot of scary things in the world. Using the internet can also be scary to students in schools as sometimes, you never know what you are going to get when doing research. This is why it is very important to teach students as much about internet safety as possible. It is important to also do it in a way in which students will understand.
Before my students get into independent research projects, I wanted to make sure they understood how to be aware of everything posted on the internet. I used the following "Wanted" characters to get the ideas and message across. Students really grasped on to the ideas and I hope they are always on the look out for these "Wanted" characters when on the internet at home or school.
We will continue to review and add more elements to our discussion and learning on internet safety throughout the year. Beware....
