This term we have been learning how to stay safe when using the internet. The internet is a wonderful resource that we use daily in our classroom for our learning, but, it can also be a dangerous place if not used correctly.
Our students live in a very different world than most adults did when they were growing up. It is vital that all students learn about the digital footprint that they leave every time they access the internet. In class we have been discussing the importance of protecting our identity, keeping passwords private, cyberbullying and the dangers associated with online interactions.
As a class, we decided to produce some videos to teach others the golden rules for internet safety. We used the app Puppet Pals 2 on our iPads to produce an informative video.
