Internet Safety and Student Privacy:
With any technology, there can always be a problem with internet safety. Each parent will sign a consent
form, for students work to be shown. However, each student and parent will be given a number. With this
number, the student's works will be displayed on the line for parents to see and be informed. At no time with
any student’s name be displayed. There will also be passwords, that will allow students, parents, and
stakeholders to view our classroom.
Reflective Practice:
This lesson is designed to teach students about the people in their community that assist them every day.
Teaching them how important community helper is and why we need people like them in our community.
