We spent this week discussing how to keep ourselves and others safe when we are online. In addition, we also added how we treat our technology in different environments. We used our school value of Respect as a way to begin these conversations.
Students shared a number of great ideas about how we take care of our technology and how
to also make good decisions about where we work with digital tech.
Students are aware that spending too long on a digital device is not the best for our brains or our valuable
time. There were also a number of concerned faces when we discussed the best position to use technology - we don't lie upside down, or run through the class waving our ipads around!
Using technology provides opportunities for students to develop ideas, record their ideas, and celebrate student learning with whanau. Year 3 students will soon be taking their digital technologies agreement home and we encourage families to spend time discussing these ideas with your children. Year 3's will receive their Gmail accounts in the near future.
