Digital Citizenship Pledge

As a Digital Citizen, I pledge to:


Keeping personal information safe:

  1. Keep my account safe by putting in no personal information that could cause harm to me, my friends, and everyone at this school. I could prevent harm if I check that there is a lock icon on the web browser. This would mean that my account including my password will be safe.
  2. Also, if we are creating passwords, I will chose a username and password that would be hard to hack.
  3. I will always log out, and shut down my computer so nobody can get to my account and change anything.
  4. I will also never tell anyone what my password is, even if I think I could trust them because they could change something really important that could do a lot of damage.


Keeping my location private:

  1. I won't use any social websites at school when I am not supposed to because they show the locations, time, and day you post pictures which can be really dangerous.

Online gaming sites:

  1.  I will not use any online gaming sites at school if I am not told to because somebody who is also playing this game can say something that can hurt me, and the people at this school as well.
  2. I will not click on random links that people online give me because they most likely can do harm to the computers, or to the school network such as viruses.


Rules to follow:

  1. I will not share any information about me on any websites because then anyone can access it which means they can access email, adress, and in the worst scenario, they could find my family's and friends band account.
  2. If I do post something online outside of school, I will make sure that there is nothing inappropriate on it, or anything that could cause harm to other people in my class, or in this school.
  3. I will also make sure that if I send a picture online outside of school, that there is not the school that I go to in the picture, and that it does not show any street addresses or house numbers or anything that would help somebody figure out where I am.

Copyright and Fair Use:

  1. I will not freely take somebody's images or text without giving credit to the owner of the picture, or getting permission from the owner. I will also use these images and text responsibly, and for a purpose.
  2. When I use this text and images, I will make sure to make it more like my style with a new idea instead of using the original idea because then it is copying work.
  3. I will also think twice before taking and image without giving credit to the owner, or checking who the owner is and what their idea was.


Mindful Messaging:

  1. While writing something on Edmodo, schoolloop, google classroom, or any other messaging site that we use at school, I will make sure that I write something that people will understand from a message, and so people don't take my message a different way than I meant to say.
  2. I will also make sure that I don't just say something such as "hi" because that is not helpful to what is happening in class, and it is not on topic.

Cyber Bullying:

  1. If somebody cyber bullies me, I will tell somebody immediately and ignore the texts.
  2. I would definitely not respond because the person who is bullying me will just want attention from it.
  3. I will never try to cyber bully anybody because it is really mean and can hurt somebodies feelings and make them uncomfortable.
  4. Cyber bullying is really a bad thing to do. Sometimes it can even be worse than telling somebody something straight into their face because here, you know the person. You don't know that they look like so you can tell somebody. It really is dangerous.


Digital Etiquette:

  1. I will follow all of the rules, and be nice online.
  2. I will never forget that what I am typing online should be something that I would say in real life
  3. I will always re-read what I write on edmodo, classroom and schoolloop so the message is clear.

Webonauts:

  1. I will always observe, respect, and hontribute when people need help.
  2. When people are having trouble with cyber bullying, then I will help them out like the webonauts did.
  3. Helping people out is really important, and I will always do that.

Structure of the Periodic Table - 9/25-9/29

https://image.slidesharecdn.com/theperiodictable-110223090122-phpapp01/95/the-periodic-table-7-728.jpg?cb=1298451775 Summary: This week, we have been learning about how the periodic table is arranged and the different patterns that are in the rows  and columns. In the periodic table, the rows are called periods. Along the rows, the elements are organized by atomic number (the number of protons.) The rows also have the same energy level or the number of electrons. For example, in the first row, all of the elements' atoms have one energy level, and so on.The atomic mass is the number of neutrons plus the number of protons. The atomic mass can be a decimal, and it is ordered increasingly. The columns in the periodic table are called groups or families. Each family has a name. For example, group one is composed of alkali metals which is the family with Lithium, Sodium, and more. Each group also has the same number of outer, or valence electrons. The elements in group one ...

Musical Instruments and Sound- Weekly Blog (3/11-3/15)

Sound Energy - Musical Instruments by SolPass Summary We understand how sound is produced, and how sound waves can travel through different mediums, but how do musical instruments produce sound? There are hundreds of instruments in the world, producing various pitches, tones, and chords. There are three main types of instruments: wind, percussion, and string. The sound is produced differently based on the type of instrument. The first type of instrument is a string instrument. In a string instrument, the sound is created from the vibration of strings. For example, when you play guitar, you pull on the strings. As the strings vibrate, the air molecules start vibrating as well, producing sound. The next type of instruments are wind and brass instruments and are made when we blow sound into them. The shape and position of the instrument affect the overall tone and pitch. The most common kind of wind instrument is a reed instrument. Blowing on the reed causes it to vib...

Energy Transformations - Weekly Blog (1/28-2/1)

Types of Energy  by  Solar Schools Summary: You've probably heard the quote by Albert Einstein, "Energy cannot be created or destroyed, it can only be changed from one form to another." But what are the forms of energy? There are six general energy forms: chemical, mechanical, thermal, light, electrical, and nuclear. Any form of energy can be converted into another form. There are many examples of energy transformations that happen in our everyday lives. The first energy form is chemical energy. Chemical energy is a form of potential energy and is stored in chemical substances. An example of chemical energy is gasoline that is used to power a car. The next form of energy is mechanical energy. Mechanical energy is energy released by a moving object. For example, mechanical energy is the energy that causes a soccer ball to move when kicked. Another form of energy is thermal energy and is associated with the motion of molecules. This means that it is caused by f...
