Our Digital Citizenship focus this winter was on helping kids to make good choices online. The Digital Citizenship Lessons from Common Sense Media were at the forefront of our instruction. We also read several books to our classes that the kids were able to tie in with our lessons. Technology Tail is a book about how it is important to make wise choices when we are online so we can leave behind a good digital footprint. Nerdy Birdy is a book about the power of words and helped guide our discussions on being kind online and making sure that students are not participating in cyberbullying when online.
We continued with our keyboard instruction to kickoff 2021. The Kindergarten, first and second graders accessed our Keyboarding Choice board and practiced their keyboarding skills using games like ABCya Keyboard Zoo and Keyboard Zoo 2. The younger kids worked on finding different letters on the QWERTY keyboard and the older kids practiced making capital letters using the shift key and using punctuation marks to form sentences. Third through fifth graders took a Mid-Year Keyboarding Test and continued their work in Typing.com.
