Ness Clan Internet Safety Video
Internet Safety Week
L.I I am learning how to develop healthy and respectful relationships online.
As it was internet safety week, Rannoch clan learned about how to develop healthy and respectful relationships online. We discussed in groups, what kindness looks like, feels like and sounds like online, why it matters and what we can do if someone is being hurtful online.
We made a looks like, feels like and sounds like grid to put up in our clan room which included all our ideas. We can refer back to this when needed. We then looked at unkind comments and tried to find a way to change these so that they are acceptable to share online. Finally, we played a game on google called ‘interland’ and explored the kind kingdom level. This game aims to help children to stay safe and be kind online. We picked up some helpful hints on how to be kind online.
