1. Bringing up a child in the 21st century

18. E-safety day
All children were taught to make sure that adults always know what they are going on when using ICT.
Children have learnt to explore websites and have begun to understand how to use technology safely to search for particular information. (Child friendly google)
They are aware of how to deal with pop-ups and have been taught to tell an adult immediately if they see anything unusual.
They have been taught not to share passwords or personal information.
They have been taught which devices access the internet. (X-box live)
We looked at hyperlinks and when to use them safely.
We taught the children not to download apps or games without adult permission.
