Students will learn how to stay safe while using the internet. This class will provide students with practical tips and guidelines to follow while using the internet, apps, and social media. We will discuss why it is important to stay safe on the internet and how they can protect themselves while using the internet. This class is taught with Canva presentation slides, lecture, discussion, and an activity where students think about what they would do in various situations. I believe in sharing information that young people need to know without scaring them unnecessarily. We will talk about not sharing personal information, not meeting up with people you don't know, how to handle cyberbullying, etc. Class Agenda Welcome Greetings and Ice Breaker Discuss What websites, apps, and social media do you use on a regular basis?

Hello families!
My name is Linda Lu. I teach English Language Arts and social studies at a middle school in the United States.
My education includes a Master's Degree in Teaching and a Bachelor's degree in English. I'm a licensed teacher in the state of North Carolina. I'm certified to teach English Language Arts, Reading, English as a Second Language, and Social Studies.
I have been teaching since 2012. My teaching experience includes teaching in South Korea, Japan, and China for a total of 4 years. During this time, I taught students of all ages, including elementary, middle school/junior high, and high school.
Currently, I teach high school English Language Arts and World History. My experience as a teacher in North Carolina includes experience with elementary, middle, and high school students.
I believe students learn best when they are engaged and having fun while they learn. I love classroom discussions where student can share their stories and perspectives. We can learn so much from listening to each other.
I also like to engage students with games, video clips, and other interactive activities as much as possible during lessons.
My hobbies are reading novels, watching movies, hiking, and traveling. I also love to spend time with family, friends, and my dog.
You can request a class with me based on my availability. Please feel free to message me if you have any questions or concerns.
I look forward to seeing you in class!Reviews
