Digital Citizenship: Technology Balance
$250.00
Using technology for both school and fun can be difficult. We meet Olive from “planet Digitopolis” who loves to play computer games. She also has homework to do! In this program, learners help Olive decide how much screen time is appropriate, set timers and make a schedule to stay on track.
This fun, interactive series explores digital citizenship with a crew of puppet friends. Learners in grades pre-K-4 will get loads of practical tips for digital citizenship as they guide their new puppet friends to solve real-world problems in technology. Developmentally appropriate activities prepare learners with future-ready skills. This unique online learning experience is based on the SEL zones of regulation model from Leah Kuypers, MA.Ed.
This program is the fourth in a series but it can also stand alone.
Length: 1 class period (flexible)
Target Audience: grades pre-K-6
Up to 100 participants via Zoom Webinar or one full class via standard video conferencing call.
