Lesson Idea | That's Private!

What kinds of information should I keep to myself when I use the internet?

Staying safe online is a lot like staying safe in the real world. By helping a Digital Citizen sign up for a new app, students learn about the kinds of information they should keep to themselves when they use the internet -- just as they would with a stranger in person.

Objectives:
• Recognize the kind of information that is private.
• Understand that they should never give out private information online.

Vocabulary
• online – using a computer, phone, or tablet to visit a website or app
• private – something that you should keep to yourself
