Safer Internet Day in Year 5

This afternoon Year 5 had some fantastic discussions about how to stay safe online. First we listened to some different scenarios and played a game choosing statements we agree with. We then created a web using string and discussed whether we would push someone out of the circle and be mean to them in real life and whether this is different to doing this in online. Then we role played different scenarios and how to deal with them both online and in person. We also recapped age limits on apps that are popular and why these age limits are there. We enjoyed reading our new book called ‘When Charlie McButton lost power’ about how technology can take over your brain and we discussed what you can do instead of using technology all the time.
