Assignment 2 for Internet Safety--Assigned March 17th
<span style="font-family: 'Verdana','sans-serif'; margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">The Internet is an amazing place full or interesting things and information. It is also full of danger, especially for young people.

<span style="font-family: 'Verdana','sans-serif'; margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">Your task is to create a lesson for elementary or Middle School students about Internet Safety.

<span style="font-family: 'Verdana','sans-serif'; margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">It must be well thought and developed. Your first step is to check out what is Internet Safety and how do you stay safe online.

<span style="font-family: 'Verdana','sans-serif'; margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">You must have:


 * <span style="font-family: 'Verdana','sans-serif'; tabstops: list .5in;">5 Definitions or notes for them to take
 * <span style="font-family: 'Verdana','sans-serif'; tabstops: list .5in;">A story about why Internet safety is important (this can be fictional or a real news story). This is what you will be reading to them. Remember they are younger than you.
 * <span style="font-family: 'Verdana','sans-serif'; tabstops: list .5in;">An activity for the students to (it can be written or actually on the Internet)
 * <span style="font-family: 'Verdana','sans-serif'; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; tabstops: list 1.0in;">You must have a clear instruction sheet to tell them what to do and how to do it.
 * <span style="font-family: 'Verdana','sans-serif'; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; tabstops: list 1.5in;">You can use resources that are out there but you have to find them and explain what they are and why you chose them.

<span style="font-family: 'Verdana','sans-serif'; margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">The more creative you are with your lesson, the more engage the students will be.

<span style="font-family: 'Verdana','sans-serif'; margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">You may work with one other person.

<span style="font-family: 'Verdana','sans-serif'; margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">Everything must be explained in a Word document or a PowerPoint so it can be followed. Think of this as a script of how you would do this.
