Before you click, think.
Good researchers are careful, patient, and honest. Use these rules every time you search.
Search with a goal
Write your question first. Search for facts, definitions, dates, people, places, or how something works.
Use safe words
Keep searches clear and school-friendly. Add words like "for kids," "student," "museum," or "official."
Protect private info
Never type your full name, address, phone number, school, password, location, or family details into a website.
Ask before signing in
If a site asks for an account, chat, payment, download, camera, microphone, or location, stop and ask an adult.

Social media warning
Social media is not a research shortcut.
Social media sites can include strangers, comments, ads, arguments, short videos, trends, and recommendations that pull students away from learning. Do not use social media for school research unless a parent or teacher gives clear permission and stays involved.
Watch for strangers
Do not reply to unknown people, private messages, or comments that ask for personal details.
