Background
The Cyber Security lesson unit consists of three separate lessons combined into one unit.
Unit - Grade 6: Cyber Security
Students examine specific types of malware, and they learn how to protect their computers, devices and information security. Students acquire and use technical terms. As an empowerment project, students create a media-based project that educates and empowers others to practice cyber security.
Lesson - Cyber Security and E-mail Protocols
Students come to understand that, by following the proper protocol when using e-mail applications, they can protect their computer or device from security issues. Through close reading of informational text and relevant exercises, students learn how to identify potentially malicious e-mails. Students add to their list of cyber security tips.
Lesson - Risks of Spyware
Students come to understand that spyware compromises personal information security. Through close reading of informational text, students learn how computers and devices become infected with spyware. They also learn how to protect their computers and devices from infection. Students add to their list of cyber security tips.
Lesson - Spam and Scams
Students learn to identify SPAM and scam e-mails through close reading of informational text and collaborative discussion. Students conduct a short research project on SPAM and scam e-mail, and they add to their list of security tips.
Lesson - Cyber Security Review
Students review what they have learned about cyber security. The correlating slideshow addresses topics such as malware, e-mail protocol, Acceptable Use Policies, peer-to-peer file sharing, and the risks of digital downloads including e-mail attachments, online programs and digital content.

Malware are programs, such as worms and viruses, that include malicious code—code written with the intent
to harm, destroy, or annoy. “Code” is a term for the language(s) computer programs are written in. It tells
the computer what and how to do things. Malware can attach to e-mails and carry out programming that can
cause computers to work improperly.
Working in collaborative groups, students engage in a short research project on a specific type of malware. They create multimedia presentations that integrate multiple sources of credible information and include source citations. As experts on the subject, students define aspects of digital security and inform on how the audience can better protect their computers and devices from malicious code such as viruses, Trojan horses, worms, and spyware.
