Our whole-school homework this week is:
Living and Learning:
As well as exploring consent generally, consider permission-seeking and permission-giving when online eg getting permission before taking and sharing images of others.
As a parent / carer, you might want to start seeking permission before uploading images of your child online (‘Shall I share this pic, or would you prefer me not to?’ is one way to ask, for example.)
This BBC Newsround clip talks about the importance of online consent.This BBC Bitesize clip talks about digital consent.
Reading: please make sure your child is reading on a daily basis.
Number Fact Fluency: use Numbots or Times Table Rock Stars in regular short bursts.
Talk Time:
This week, our Talk Time is in preparation for Safer Internet Day on Tuesday 10 February. We’ll have a full day of learning based around internet safety. With that in mind, start to think about ways you already keep yourself safe when online.
I can talk about ways to keep myself safe online
Things you might like to consider are:
- Age restrictions – where might you see these and why are these used?
- Digital content – do you know what a digital footprint is?
- Mis information, disinformation and hoaxes – are all things we read true?
- Fake websites and scam emails – are all websites trusted?
- Password safety
- Personal data and keeping it safe online
- Online vs offline behaviour
- Impact on quality of life and having a balance of online and offline activities
Have a conversation with your family and friends about how you already keep yourself safe online. After your conversation, take some time to reflect on yours and others responses. Is there anything that you could change or do differently to help keep yourself even safer online? Is there anything you’d like to know more about?
