No Adults Allowed!

Quilt of Trusted Adults
Working with NetSmartz, the Northwestern District Attorney’s Office has empowered children to teach each other about Internet safety. Director of Community Education and Outreach, Cynthia Boyle, shares about their work and what can happen when adults take a step back.
In Massachusetts, Clicky has taken on some additional duties: working with high school students to teach first and second graders how to be safer online. Members of the 2008-2009 Youth Advisory Board (YAB), which consists of high school students from local schools, decided it was time for them to take an active role in helping teach basic Internet safety to the youngest members of their communities.
In addition to teaching with Clicky, YAB members also provide the first and second graders with some hands-on classroom projects that reinforce the safety messages they learned from Clicky. While in the classrooms, YAB members lead discussions with the first and second graders about who a trusted adult is and create a list of the students’ answers. Then, each student is given a quilt square and asked to draw a picture of their trusted adult.
When the students are finished with their drawings, YAB members tie the squares together creating a Quilt of Trusted Adults. Each class keeps their quilt to hang in their classroom for the rest of the school year. Finally, an awards ceremony is held, where the YAB members give each student a Clicky certificate of completion and an activity book to take home.
Through teaching lessons about Internet safety, the YAB members have those concepts reinforced in their own lives. It is just more one step that our community is taking towards helping every child stay safer online.Some Real NetSmartz Kids

The students at St. Thomas Aquinas School know what it means to be safer online. Watch them use their NetSmartz in this Internet safety skit.

The goal of Signed Stories is to increase the literacy of deaf children; however, it is a great resource for all children. After choosing a story, you will see the text, hear the story and see it in sign language. Almost 100 titles are available and can be searched by topic or by browsing all titles. Some stories offer more options than others. Many stories have pause and rewind buttons, so you can replay to see signs again. 10902 In the Classroom: Use stories on the interactive whiteboard or projector to teach story elements - pause as the story is read to allow students to retell details to the stopping point then make predictions of what will happen next. Help students understand disabilities and adaptations to disabilities through watching the stories being told in sign language. This is also a great resource for students with deaf/hearing impaired parents or students/teachers trying to learn or practice sign language. In sign language classes, consider creating your own signed story videos for children's books and share them on a tool such as TeacherTube [ http://www.teachersfirst.com/single.cfm?id=9419 ]reviewed here.
