‘On the internet’ is a learning-to-read book for children aged 4 and above. It has been written for your child to read, with your help when needed. There is no ‘right’ or ‘expected’ number of words for your child to read in this book. Their interaction will be based entirely on their ability. There are puzzles after the story. You will need to read the instructions for these to your child. Top tips for reading this book together: Encourage your child to read as much as they can, and help them to sound out the words if they get stuck. Encourage your child to begin by sounding out the simpler words, e.g. a, can, for etc., and progress from there. Each sentence begins with, ‘You can,’ so this repeated phrase will become familiar. It’s a good idea to read the story several times. Practising, and pointing out, the different sound combinations will help to build your child’s confidence. Choose a time to read when your child is not too tired or distracted. You do not need to read the whole book in one sitting and can always return to it later. Only read for as long as your child wants to. Remember to give lots of encouragement, and praise, for their efforts! The main aim of this book is enjoyment! If your child wants you to read the entire text to them, that’s fine too! Guidance notes The following sounds are included: ll, ch, sh, th, ng, ai, ee, oa, oo (moon), oo (book), ar, or, ear, ure, er. It is important that your child tries to read these as letter combinations, rather than reading each letter individually. If they are unsure, look at the words together and see if they can spot any sound patterns that they are familiar with. Non-decodable words included: the, you, so.

Digital resilience is a key skill that we want young people to develop. Whilst going online can be incredibly fun and enjoyable, there can also be times when a young person can feel upset, not good enough, or left out. These are the occasions when young people will need strategies to help themselves and also to help their friends if they are having a difficult time online. This lesson aims to look at the positive and negative experiences young people have online, consider the impact they may have and devise ways to build digital resilience.
