                                                                 Internet safely.”











                  LINKS AND POP-UPS

                  A link is like a doorway on the Internet that takes you to a new place when you click
                  on it.



                  When you  click  on something  blue  and underlined  on a

                  website, that is a link.





                                                             When you  click  on it, it  takes  you  to  another

                                                             page or website.
                                                             Sometimes,  these  links  are  helpful, like  when

                                                             your teacher shares one. But sometimes, links
                                                             can be traps made by people who want to steal

                                                             your data.
                  They can be used for many things, like opening a video or reading a story.


                  Links are very important for moving around the Internet because they connect all
                  the different pages and websites together, almost like a map.

                                                                                             is safe.
