In Year 3, during our computing sessions on Purple Mash we have been recapping the importance of having a secure password. We were shocked to hear that some adults still have the password ‘password’. 

We discussed blogs and what they are and what they are used for. We had a look at the school blog and thought it was great to see all of the things the children have been doing across the school. We noticed that all of the content was positive and all of the teachers and children had written complimentary things about each other.

We had a class discussion about appropriate and inappropriate things that we could write on a blog post and what they could be used for.

‘You should only say kind things about other people on a blog post’ Year 3 child OL

‘You need to be careful not to give out too much information on a blog post as anyone can read it’ Year 3 child E

We then set about making our own class blog where we gave advice to our readers about how to stay safe online. Here are a couple of our blog posts.
