Abstract
This is about Thinking Smart about the information and people
you meet on the internet
So we know the internet can be so helpful
when we are researching things for
school, or if a friend moves away, we can still stay in contact with him/her. But, we
also know that there are times when we need to be careful online.
This
lessons looks at fake news and how to help Tadhg figure out what to trust and
what not to trust when it comes to information online. We will also be looking at
people online just like in the real world there are lovely people, but unfortunately
there are some people online who may not be who they say they are. They may
have bad intentions like trying to scam you out of your money, or they might be an
adult pretending to be a child trying to speak to you and maybe even meet up with
you. This will give you top tips on how to recognise this and to know what to
do if this happens to you .
