5th Grade Internet Safety

Never give out personal information online. Never give out your name, your age, or your location. And never agree to meet anyone you met online. This short video was produced for i-SAFE. The video is not a true story, in fact the actors include an actual middle school student and his principal playing the role of the online predator. Can you find all of the online safety rules that the student did not follow?
