Respond to the two questions below; copy them and paste them onto your word document, type your answers on the word document under the question:

1. Digital citizenship: You are digital citizens, what does digital citizenship mean? 
2. Why is it important to learn how to use digital (such as cameras, cell phones, iPods) media well?

Remember to use complete sentences. I will be sharing these with your ELA teachers who may give you extra credit if you earn either a 3 or a 4. I have talked with all 7th & 8th grade ELA teachers; they want to know how well you do.

Finally, working with your small group, locate one website that your group thinks would be meaningful to our 6th grade digital natives.
