Cyber Academy offers several lessons in internet safety for kids aged seven to ten through short video episodes and accompanying tasks. Lesson topics include passwords, safety settings, misinformation, and others. Each lesson begins with a short (approximately three-minute) animated video followed by a conversation guide with discussion questions. In addition, a Kahoot quiz, reviewed here, offers an additional opportunity to reinforce the information shared in the lesson. Finally, a printable homework activity is available for students to review the lesson through activities such as crossword puzzles and word searches. The videos are hosted on YouTube. If your district blocks YouTube, then they may not be viewable.

In the Classroom
Include these lessons as part of your internet safety activities by adding them as a computer center activity or a flipped or blended learning activity. Consider adding a new lesson weekly or monthly as part of your year-long discussions on becoming a safe digital citizen. Enhance the video information using an interactive tool such as Timelinely, reviewed here, to add comments, insert supporting media, or links to additional information. Ask students to create short videos sharing their learning, then add them to a class book made with Book Creator, reviewed here. As you complete each lesson, add new videos to create a reference book that includes all the material learned.
