The CyberSmart Curriculum
Students in Divisions 2 and 4 are currently learning from the CyberSmart curriculum. This page was created to help make a connection between what the kids are learning from the CyberSmart curriculum at school, to their online activities at home.
CyberSmart is a free curriculum provided by Common Sense Media - an independent, non-profit group based in the United States. Ms. Kwok and Miss Albright have studied and evaluated this curriculum, and believe it provides students with valuable tools and knowledge to keep them smart, safe and secure online.
Home Connection sheets
The CyberSmart curriculum also provides parents with Home Connection information sheets. The Home Connection sheets provide parents with some excellent information about how to keep your children smart, safe and secure online.
