Room 21 has been learning about online safety and coding. For coding Mrs Pasirio gave us a URL link and our secret code or picture. We entered our URL to link to a page with your name and other names of people in our group. When we clicked on our name and typed down our secret code or picture it would take us to our first hour of code. A video clip showed and the tutorial began. It explained the basic skills of computer programming and how to use certain commands to control the Angry Bird or zombie.
For online safety we had to get in three groups and go on an app called Poplets and type down what online safety means to us. Then Mrs Pasirio handed out two sheets, one sheet was to highlight the keys words and the other sheet was for us to rotate around so we could write down our opinion of what we think about the questions on the sheet. We had four minutes on each station before we had to rotate until we all had a turn at answering each question. After break we watched a video clip about cyber safety and online strangers. It was about a cat called Professor Garfield telling us about not sharing our YAPPY. Your YAPPY is your full name, address, phone number, passwords and your plans, so that means that you can share your hobbies and other things you enjoy as long as you don't give away your YAPPY. It was fun learning about online safety and coding because we will be already prepared
so we know how to keep safe from strangers online, when we make an account and when we might become a famous online person from all our coding.

I'm glad you are more aware of the importance of protecting your YAPPY!
ReplyDeleteIt was interesting learning about citizen ship and coding it was awesome especially when we learnt about our YAPPY and why we should not share personal infro like that to others
ReplyDeleteIt was really interesting learning about coding and learnt about YAPPY and why we shouldn't share our personal information to stranger's
ReplyDeleteit is important when you learn about cyber safety because you never know what might happen to us in the future when we make an account.
ReplyDeleteI think in order for you to be safe you need to be a certain age for Facebook or other things that could harm you or people could stalk or contact you!!!!! Don't go and do things you know you will get in trouble for.like the saying, choose your friends wisely.
