1. We will never give out personal
information such as our last name, address
or phone number• We should also not give out the name of our school, our city, our siblings, our sports team or our parent’s workplace.
2. We all agree to not give our passwords to anyone outside of our
family.• Agreed upon user names with your parents to use while on the Internet
• Sharing passwords allows others to get into your sites and change information
3. We all agree to limit our online time so that it doesn’t
interfere with other activities.
• Other People in Your Family May Need to Use the Computer
• Too Much Time May Interfere with Other Activities
4. I will never meet an online friend in
person. • Just as you stay away from strangers on the street, be careful about strangers on the Internet
• Tell your parents immediately if someone asks to meet you in person
5. I will tell my mom or dad right away if I come across something that makes me feel uncomfortable.
• Walk away and tell Your Parents
• Save the evidence
6. I will not remain on or click on a page that says, “For Over
18 Years Only.” • You are clicks away from information that is not for kids
• Would your parents approve what you are viewing?
7. I will only download pictures and files with my parent's
permission• Get your parent’s permission • Files may contain inappropriate pictures or viruses
• Viruses can harm your family’s computer
8. I will not send pictures of my family or myself to anyone
online. • Don’t share pictures of you and your family unless your parents say it is alright
9. I will be safe everywhere.
• Follow the internet rules from your home at your friend’s, school, and library
10. I understand that nothing is private on
the Internet.
• Mom and dad can read your emails and check your sites to make sure you are being safe.
Safe Searching
• Lesson plans, interactive activities and other online resources
• Student materials, interactive tools and reference materials
Borrowing Information
• It's OK to use information or pictures from websites as long as you write where you got it.
• Make sure you write a sentence next to it stating where you got it.
• If you're confused, you could also ask your teacher what to do.
