The concepts that will be explored include:

• I can understand how online behaviours may result in risk of harm to myself or others.
• I know how to keep personal information private, and that personal or private data of others should not be shared on social media.
• I can give examples of what anyone may or may not be willing to share about. themselves online.
• I can explain the need to be careful before sharing anything personal.
• I can explain and give examples of the difference between online bullying and teasing online.
