Getting to know our new K-5 Digital Literacy and Citizenship Curriculum
Children today are using the immense power of digital media to explore, connect, create, and learn in ways never before imagined. 
Common Sense Media’s, our new Digital Literacy and Citizenship Curriculum, empowers students to think critically, behave safely, and participate responsibly in our digital world.  These 21st-century skills are essential for students to harness the full potential of technology for learning.

  • Includes research-based lessons
  •  Provides student-centered, media-rich lessons materials that emphasize skill building, critical thinking, ethical discussion media creation, and decision making to students of all ages
  •  Addresses the whole community by providing materials to educate parents and families about digital citizenship

All lessons and activities are designed with age appropriate materials in mind such as student handouts, assessments, educational videos, and family tip sheets.
