Hello 5th and 6th graders! Welcome to WebDrill!

Or,

You are your own best filter


What do you do if you encounter inappropriate material on the internet? You have control right at the tips of your fingers! Remember, you can:


• Close the lid of your laptop and ask for help from your teacher

• Hit Command + Q (this quits your browser)

• Hit Command + W (this closes your window)


• Hit Command + H (this hides your window)


• Hit the green BACK arrow in the top left corner of your browser.



Directions:

You may visit any of the websites listed below. (of course, they don't have inappropriate material, but this is just practice....)

When you hear the words, “WEB DRILL!!” close your site with any of the four methods you learned today.
