Monday Script: Critical Thinking
Happy Digital Citizenship Week! This week schools around the country are learning more about Digital Citizenship! Digital citizenship means making good choices when we use technology.
Today we’re learning about critical thinking! Just because something is online doesn’t always mean it’s true.
Here are three tips when you see or read something online:
Stop and think before you believe it.
Check with a grown-up if you aren’t sure.
Don’t share it if you don’t know it’s true.
At Comal ISD, we are smart Digital Citizens!
