Internet Safety in the Classroom

One way i plan on making the internet a safe place in my classroom is by making each computer have a password that each student has that protects their own privacy and when they log in, it allows them certain interactive websites to choose from. I would teach the students how that the pop-ups that appear on the screens sometimes are not real and bad and that they shouldnt click on them. I would make sure they were fully aware of the good and bad things about the internet.
