Welcome to our Spanish class blog! Through this blog we will discover new and exciting ways to use Spanish on the internet. But before we get to posting, let's look at a few rules for using the internet both in and out of class. There are many things that you need to be aware of when using the internet to be safe. Here is a quick list of ideas to keep you safe while online:
Rule #1: Do NOT Give Anyone Your Information
Sometimes, websites or people will ask you for information like your name and where you live. Unless you have your parent's permission, don't answer these questions. Here's a list of things you shouldn't say on the internet:
Sometimes, websites or people will ask you for information like your name and where you live. Unless you have your parent's permission, don't answer these questions. Here's a list of things you shouldn't say on the internet:
- What's your name?
- Are you a boy or a girl?
- Where do you live?
- Where do you go to school?
- What is your phone number?
- What is your email address?
- What do you look like?
- Also, it is very important never to upload any pictures of yourself or share them online with anyone.
Rule #2: Do NOT be “Click Happy”
Do not accept gift or a present from someone online; it is usually a scam! Do not install or download software/programs that could be dangerous or harmful. Do not click on advertisements online.

Rule #3: Don't Talk to Strangers
Remember what we taught you in Kindergarten? Well that still applies on the internet! If you ever get an email or comment on your blog from someone you don't know--don't respond to it. Instead, let me or your parents know immediately.
Rule #4: Keep the Internet Bully-Free
Just like in school, we should be treating each other with respect and kindness. If you see something, say something to me or your parents. If you see any bullying on our blogs when you're at home, let me know the next time you see me in school.
Rule #5: Keep Your Own Passwords
Now that you are using the internet, you need to keep your online passwords safe and sound and to yourself! Of course, you can share them with your parents (and probably should if you are forgetful!), but never give them out to other people.
Rule #6: If you accidentally come across something that seems inappropriate leave the webpage immediately!

ReplyDeleteI like the phrase "click happy"XD. But what will happen if I click the advertisments? I sometimes will click them, and so far it's seems safe for me.
