  • “If you wouldn’t say it, do it, or watch it with me in the room, it’s not okay.”
  • Sit down with your kids to create an “acceptable use” policy for your own home—they’re much more likely to follow the rules if they’ve had a say in writing them
  • Even if you enable restrictions, however, this isn’t a “set it and forget it” situation.

      Might be a bit overkill here, but keep the password from the kids might be a good idea.  Still, they can operate off of 3G or 4G on their phones.
  • Do they know, for example, how to ensure that only their friends can see what they’ve posted on Facebook? Do they understand that tweets live on in cyberspace forever?
  • One popular idea is to change the Wi-Fi password for your home network daily, and only give it to your kids when they’ve earned it via whatever rules you’ve determined.
  • ar too many parents don’t bother to check on what their kids are doing online—and the results can be disastrous.
  • Don’t let your teens sleep with their phones or computers
  • keeping desktop computers out of bedrooms.
  • The key to this is that Mom and Dad also have to follow the rules, because kids will always do as you do, not as you say. Try establishing a daily device-free time of just 10 or 15 minutes at the breakfast or dinner table, and see if you feel it has a positive impact on your family.

  • From the students, integration demands creativity, problem-solving, perseverance, collaboration and the ability to work through the rigorous demands of multiple ideas and concepts woven together to create a final product. Integration is not simply combining two or more contents together
  • By weaving the arts into and through our content in naturally aligned ways, we are providing relevance to student learning, and giving them an opportunity to connect their world to our classrooms
  • The keys to using Arts Integration successfully are: Collaboration between arts and classroom teachers to find naturally-aligned objectives Using an arts area in which the classroom teacher is comfortable (for many, this starts with visual arts) Creating a lesson that truly teaches to both standards Assessing both areas equitably
