First thing to Know- Sharks in the Water! 

Always be ready for sharks!
...even in a kiddie pool (protected site or "private" online group or app)

Who are the "sharks" of the internet?
- mean friends, creepy pedos, dishonest scammers, non-credible sources! (not incredible, non-credible!) 

Who/What else are the sharks?

Part 1- Getting Your Feet Wet (your Digital Footprint)

Online your  digital footprint is like a footprint in cement, not like water or sand!

People WILL stalk your digital footprint and what you do never goes away. 
future schools
future employers
future sports teams
parents of potential bofirends and girlfriends

avoid negative and accentuate the positive

better to not make the mess than to try to have to clean it up.-nothing is ever truly deleted (wayback machine, cache, screenshots, stolen passwords etc)

Make sure that you are following digital citizenship guidelines so you can show off your best work as part of your digital footprint without a billl or a letter from a lawyer. Google image search, royalty free music etc.

Part 2 - Learning to Swim (basics of DigCit)

Make a hashtag or url to encapsulate the best advice of digital citizenship that we've learned so far (or that you already knew.
Bonus- write some tweets or the front page

Part 3- Synchronized Swimming (Social Media)

What would happen if the women in this photo were not swimming in synch?

After our discussion of social media rules, safety and cyber bullying, use the table below (or an emoji keyboard on your BYOT device) to create an "emoji tweet" of important points to remember.
