A Grades 3–12 Digital Literacy Curriculum Built for Districtwide Implementation
Teacher-ready lesson plans, professional development, and implementation support — written by a founder who spent 15 years building and monetizing digital platforms, not studying them from the outside.
A Districtwide Approach to Digital Literacy
Most schools handle digital literacy one assembly, one grade, or one well-meaning teacher at a time. That leaves gaps. BAM’s curriculum is built to close them district by district.
Consistent instruction across every school in the district
Age-appropriate progression across elementary, middle, and high school
Direct support for digital citizenship & media literacy goals
Teacher-ready materials — minimal prep, no heavy lift
Flexible integration into advisory, ELA, CTE, or standalone periods
Preparing Students for the Digital World They Already Live In
One curriculum, ten interconnected topics — scaffolded from third grade through senior year.
Digital Literacy Across Grade Levels
The same core curriculum, adapted for how students actually behave online at each age.
Elementary School
Digital citizenship, online safety, privacy basics, and healthy technology habits — introduced before problems start, not after.
See the elementary program →Middle School
Algorithms, media literacy, misinformation, digital identity, and online behavior — during the years group chats and social pressure intensify.
See the middle school program →High School
AI literacy, cybersecurity, digital reputation, responsible technology use, and college and career digital readiness.
See the high school program →From Pilot Program to Districtwide Implementation
Adoption happens in stages — no district goes from zero to every school overnight, and BAM doesn’t ask them to.
