SOCIAL MEDIA LITERACY
Seventh graders often explore their expanded independence, including with their tech use, whether through their first personal device or increased access to social media and online platforms. This is also a time characterized by heightened friendship volatility and complex social hierarchies that play out both online and offline.
These lessons focus on conflict resolution skills, including how to be an upstander and what to do when harmed online. Students reflect on parasocial relationships and continue to build healthy tech habits, focusing on intentional tech use and building emotional resilience during socially turbulent times.

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