Mandatory Digital Citizenship Lessons

Digital Citizenship instruction is an essential part of beginning-of-the-year routines and procedures. It helps set the foundation for responsible technology use and supports students in developing healthy screen and digital habits. A key component of this instruction is Media Balance & Well-Being, which encourages students to reflect on how they use media and make thoughtful choices that support their mental, emotional, and physical health.

This topic is important to revisit throughout the year to reinforce positive digital behaviors and adapt to evolving classroom needs.

Below you will find a video with instructions and links to help you get started with lessons.
