The Holy Spirit Catholic Schools Digital Scope & Sequence is the culmination of several years
worth of dedication and work by many staff members who had a shared vision of providing our
students with the skills necessary to be good citizens in both a digital and non-digital world. It was
important to develop a Scope & Sequence that was rooted in our Catholic Faith, as this drives
everything we do in Holy Spirit Catholic Schools. We know the importance of our students
representing themselves as Children of God in all facets of their life, including the ever-present
online world our students engage in daily.
The Scope & Sequence is divided into three main themes: Respect, Educate and Protect. These
three themes were based on the work of Mike Ribbles Nine Elements of Digital Citizenship
(http://www.digitalcitizenship.net/). The writing committee used the three themes to guide the
development of the specific outcomes for each grade level. The committee also recognized that
many of our teachers are unfamiliar with some of the principles of Digital Citizenship, so in addition
to the outcomes in the Scope & Sequence, the committee tried to provide as many resources to
teachers as possible. This allows teachers of all experience and comfort levels with technology to
easily incorporate Digital Citizenship lessons into their classrooms regularly.
The Scope & Sequence is meant to be a fluid document, so resources and links may change from
time to time. Submissions of additional resources is encouraged. For further information regarding
the Scope & Sequence, please contact:
