As part of safer internet day and continuing with our letter writing theme, I would like you to write a letter to a friend or member of your family, explaining to them how to stay safe online.  Think about the features of a letter, as well as the important information you would like to share.  Below is the letter WAGOLL we have looked at throughout the week.  Use tips from Smartie the Penguin, as well as information we have learnt previously in class. 

Here is the link for you to choose a range of activities with Smartie:
