Family and Homeschool Activities: Email

These family and homeschool activities are designed to complement the Email topic on BrainPOP Jr.

Safe Address Book

Establish a list of safe contacts for your child. Create an address book just for your child. You can do this easily in their email accounts. Show how to select the contact from the address book to write a message. Remind your child to never email strangers or open any attachment from someone they do not know and trust. You may want to set aside a half-hour each week to help your child email friends and family members.

Dear Annie and Moby

Have your child write an email to Annie and Moby. You can use the link off the Bulletin Board. What does your child want to ask Annie and Moby? What movies did they like best? What movies would they like to see? Encourage your child to be creative and remind him or her to proofread the message for proper spelling, grammar, and punctuation.
