Online safety - Computing in Year 2

-

Year 2 have been looking at digital media (photographs) in their Computing lessons this term.

It has opened up some great discussions about asking permission before taking, editing or sharing a photo of somebody. Today they also thought about what they should do if something happened online, for example:

  • a pop-up advert asking us to click on a link
  • a friend request from someone we don't know
  • a message saying we have won a prize, just enter our details to claim
Year 2 were very savvy - they could spot the scams and the unreliable sources!

To consolidate their ideas and learning, they created mini-posters. Their posters explained what to do in different scenarios. It was very pleasing to see the children had a mature attitude towards the possible dangers and that they knew what to do if they were unsure, for example:

  • tell an adult
  • block
  • log off
  • play a different game
  • click the X button to close the window
Excellent work Year 2!

Here are some of the mini-posters:

Bawdsey Day 2

Today has been another action-packed day here at Bawdsey, with the children up bright and early, full of energy and excitement for what lay ahead. After a hearty hot breakfast to fuel the morning, the first activities kicked off: canoeing and Survivor (a fantastic session of den building and outdoor skills). The children embraced the challenge, showing great teamwork and creativity as they constructed their shelters and took to the water with enthusiasm. Following a tasty lunch, the afternoon brought even more thrills with the giant swing — a definite favourite! There were plenty of cheers (and a few nervous giggles) as each child took their turn. We rounded off the day’s activities with a problem-solving session, where teamwork, communication, and thinking outside the box were the keys to success.
