Three things that I want to make sure my students understand about being a good digital citizen are safety, etiquette/responsibility, also about communications/cyberbullying. I would use the brainpop videos to help teach the students about digital citizenship. I would also demonstrate how to use authority when searching for information and how to verify the sources. The students would create a presentation to share with the class. The students could use digital storytelling, image generators, or mashups for their projects.
Digital citizenship is something that I plan to teach at the beginning of the year and revisit frequently throughout the year.
And your friendly librarian can help with Digital Citizenship too. I presented it to the whole grade level during one of the Professional Weeks last year, but you are right that it needs to be revisited several times during the year.
