Safety on the Internet

Teachers cannot rely only on the school's website blockers to keep students off of inappropriate sites, students should always be monitored while on computers, tablets, and other devices. It is also important to teach students only to use certain school related websites and if they accidentally get to a different website, to tell the teacher immediately. A great resource teachers can use to introduce internet safety is BrainPop's Internet Safety video and quiz! Follow the link here to find the resource.
