Whether you are a pupil, parent or a teacher you might find some interesting advice on the Kidsmart website. It contains good advice to help you to use the internet safely.
I hope that it helps, Miss Brodie.

Thank you P.C Gunn for coming in to talk to us! :]
Last Thursday P.C Gunn came in to talk to all of the primary 7’s about internet safety it was very interesting.He told us about all the stuff that could could go wrong on the computer if you leave too many details about yourself.
The talk was very informative i would like to thank P.C Gunn for coming in to talk to us.

It liks to internet safety bt thats all I’l say !!
For a fun way to teach internet and social networking safety, here’s a unit that includes an instructional video and a quiz. It’s aimed at middle school and up.

The video is a selection of silly clips supposedly posted to the MySpace pages of the famous auntlee.com puppy and some of her friends. The clips demonstrate mistakes kids can make – the clips and the quiz serve as a jumpstart to further discussions.
Kids can take the interactive Flash version online, or you can download a .pdf document and print it as a handout. The 10 question quiz covers the topics of cyber-bullying, privacy, safety, dangers of spyware and malware, etc.
The quiz doesn’t really focus on stranger-danger type concerns but rather gently and humorously reminds the reader that it’s possible to hurt people’s feelings, to mislead people who don’t realize you’re joking, to remember that online postings can be seen by anybody and that postings are often impossible to remove once posted.
