Uh, there is a typo in this title. It is 'Online' I thought the book does a pretty good job of outlining what students should know about online etiquette and safety. I just wonder if a student would actually pick this up. It could be very useful for parents and teachers as they hold discussions with students and children. Some of the suggestions for activities seemed reasonable; a couple of them, not so practical. I don't know if playing a game without knowing the rules would really get the point home, but, on the other hand, reading phrases with different inflection and meaning (page 10) could be very effective. I found this to be a very quick, effortless read. It is very visually appealing, and well-organized.

Great nonifction series called "Information Explorer." This one should be part of every teacher's NF read-aloud collection.

I Chose Online Etiquette And Safety because I thought it would be a great book to read. Any other student who would like to learn about how to be safe online this would be Perfect.
