1. Computing Curriculum Day March 2016 Does this algorithm get Little Red Riding Hood to the Gingerbread Man’s house? 4 2 3 2 Start Finish

2. Aims of this morning To share our ethos towards Computing. To share your child’s learning with technology. Raise awareness of the importance of online safety. To provide an opportunity to see some of the activities your children experience and the technology they use.

3. Why is Computing so important? Children are born surrounded by technology, making digital literacy an important and key life skill to develop. Children need to have solid foundations so they can develop and apply key computing skills across a range of different devices. Children need to know about the internet, be aware of how to use it appropriately and know how they can stay safe online. At The Horsell Village School we believe our role is to support children in making correct choices when using technology and help them to become competent at seeing where technology can enhance their learning so they have the knowledge and experience to select the best tool for the job they want to do.

4. Early Years Curriculum Children recognise that technology is used in a range of places at home and school. They begin to be able to use a range of devices and select according to purpose. They begin to explore programming using remote technology. Know that they can use the internet to play, learn and communicate with others and become aware of how to keep safe online.

5. Year 1 Use technology creatively to create simple graphs, typed documents, art work. Begin to be able to navigate age appropriate websites, find information on the internet and present findings in own way. Begin to know how to save and retrieve documents and begin to develop basic skills such as typing, using a mouse, copy and paste. Begin to create simple algorithms for floor robots or screen programming software and debug when necessary. Begin to know the importance of being polite online, understanding what personal information is and what to share online and know what to do if they find something inappropriate or don’t like online.

6. Year 2 Create graphs independently, interpret information and begin to explore simple branching databases. Be able to save, retrieve work and navigate age appropriate websites independently. Use a range of technology to enhance communication e.g. create story books, leaflets, animations, record and use sound. Be able to explain what algorithm and debug mean, give examples and use this knowledge to predict what a pre- programed series of instructions will do. Use the internet safely, know that not everything is true online, have knowledge of the different ways you can communicate online, identify characteristics of people who are worthy of their trust and be able to follow the rules for staying safe online.

7. KS1 Curriculum Pupils should be taught to: understand what algorithms are, how they are implemented as programs on digital devices, and that programs execute by following precise and unambiguous instructions create and debug simple programs use logical reasoning to predict the behaviour of simple programs use technology purposefully to create, organise, store, manipulate and retrieve digital content recognise common uses of information technology beyond school use technology safely and respectfully, keeping personal information private; identify where to go for help and support when they have concerns about content or contact on the internet or other online technologies

8. What activities do we do? Our learning doesn’t always involve a technological device.

10. Online Safety Change in focus towards educating children about the risks online and how to stay safe rather then blocking content. Key discussion areas include: Conduct online and the digital footprint it creates on the internet. Content and how to assess what is relievable and what isn't. Contact and knowing that not everyone we talk to online is who they say they are. Commercialism and knowing what personal information to share.

11. SAFE Keep your personal information safe MEET Friends made online are strangers; meeting them can be dangerous ACCEPTING Accepting files can be dangerous. If unsure, ask an adult! RELIABLE Not everyone or everything online is reliable or trustworthy TELL Always tell an adult if something online upsets or worries you

13. How you can help your child at home Talk about online safety awareness. Support them in developing keyboard skills as well as using tablet devices if they have them. Encourage children to explore technology around them. Encourage children to access their learning at home and show you what they have achieved.

14. A chance to see Please take this opportunity to go and see some of the activities in your child’s classroom, in the hall and outside too. The classrooms are showing a range of activities and devices. Please do ask questions now and when you go round.
