I like how this page was broken into catergories with specific concerns listed so that parents could access what they needed. I also like that it explained the issue and gave specific examples for parents to use to support their child.

This is a short , clear video with specific steps for parents and students. This could be shared at a presentation, posted on a website, or linked in an email. Excellent concrete "to-do" list for parents. I think this would go well with an parent/child information night, giving parents a outlet to communicate with their child.

Having never seen this before, I like the clear color coding that allows for parents to see when computer/internet safety is being discussed and taught in school. This is a good guide for parents to have conversations with teachers or their child.

I like this concise handout from Common Sense that breaks down privacy and digital footprints to parents and students.  It is important that parents be able to talk with their children about how everything they do online has an infinite life.

I really liked this short video that points out a few easy ways to know if a website is okay for our students to access.  Looking for the "s" in the https part of the web address is important.  It also mentions looking for the privacy rules spelled out.

This is a great resource that specifically spells out and defines what BCPS shares and does not share with internal and external vendors.  Rule #5230 gives definitions to what some of the jargon means when wondering about what information about our students is shared with others.

I think this is a good document for parents and students to refer to about cyberbullying and it gives parents and students steps on what to do if they feel like they (or their child) is being bullied. I think that is important for parents to understand what to do and how to set social media expectations.

I like the format of this scope and sequence.  Interesting that they think that second graders will have mastered a couple of the standards.
I really liked the article about current news stories and the effect they have on kids. The tips for keeping news age appropriate is extremely important. Parents today are allowing their kids to watch everything that they are watching and current event news can be very scary for little kids.

There are several Family Media Contracts for all ages to sign and agree on media usage.  They had contracts for K-5, 6-8,9-12, Device Contract, Our contract.  I believe this would be very useful for  parents.

I agree about the pluses with the poster.  I'm picky about what goes up on the walls in my classroom, and to be honest, many of the BCPS generic posters have convoluted flow charts and diagrams that don't mean much to my kindergarteners!  This poster deserves walls space and should definitely be promoted to families.  Teaching children early on to know when to unplug is absolutely critical, especially in maintaining healthy relationships as a digital citizen

Again, this is a great reminder for parents and students to become responsible digital citizens. It gives reminders and steps for students and then encouragement and reminders for parents to share with their child. It's important to teach and communicate with children on how to use digital resources responsibly.

I like this contract that the parents and children can enter into in order to create a healthy "diet" of media consumption.  We were lucky to view "Screenagers" last night before our PTA meeting and it was scary how children (and adults) are becoming addicted to screen time.   This contract can help children understand the importance of a balance of screen time and time away from technology.

Self-reflect before you self-reveal. This is an easy to understand mantra that needs to be taught to young people and adults for that matter. Young people feel that they are invincible and can be prone to take risks. Pair that with the internet and you have a frightening combination. Learning early on can really set children on the right path.

# data[].attributes.body
I thought this was important to share with younger children, possibly as a visual - especially about not sharing the name of the school that you attend.

Remind your kids not to give strangers private information. Kids should never give out their name, address, school, phone number, email, pictures, or anything that could identify who they are.

Parents should be made aware of the apps and websites their children are using to communicate to other children and peers, in their school or not in their school.  Parents should explore the tools themselves to see they ways students can use the sites or apps in a positive way, and they should also be aware of the implications or conflicts they may face.  Awareness is key.  - Lauren Wells

This video and document should be shared with parents and students. Cyber bullying occurs and parents are not always our partners in knowing how to handle the situation in a way that students are following BCPS policies.    As teachers, we can also use this to help parents work with us to communicate to children how to use other ways to cope with and resolve peer conflicts.  Our parents may not be aware that some ways of inappropriately "resolving" conflicts outside of school can be consequenced in school.

This was new learning for me, partially, ha!  I think we should have students and parents we aware of copyright laws when completing a lot of projects.  Parents should be given this information with home/family projects so they can be aware and follow the guidelines of giving credit to authors.
