PRETEEN DIGITAL LIFE
Fifth graders are preparing for middle school, developing more abstract thinking and increased social awareness as they prepare for significant transitions. While device ownership varies significantly, many students now have their own device or frequent access to a device, using messaging platforms and engaging in online social interactions.
These lessons focus on media analysis, privacy management, and a deeper understanding of online relationships. Students learn about boundary setting and develop frameworks for making thoughtful and responsible decisions online—skills that will serve them well in middle school.

It is recommended to teach these lessons in order. Each lesson should take about 20 minutes and include plenty of interaction.
