Keeping Your Child Safe Online: A guide for parents.

If your child is accessing school work online, please work with us to help keep them safe.

1. REMEMBER OUR SMART RULES!

Talk to your child about our SMART rules and ensure they understand what they mean.

2. ENSURE YOUR CHILD CANNOT ACCESS INAPPROPRIATE MATERIAL. Find out how you can lock down your devices with parental restrictions to ensure your child is not accessing harmful content. This will be on the device settings. You can also restrict what they can view with help from your internet provider.

3. ADVICE FOR ZOOM MEETINGS

We hope your child will enjoy our live teaching sessions, but we must ask you to ensure we keep all the children in the session safe. You can do this by:

• • not recording the meeting in any way – photograph or video; • • ensuring the child is working in a neutral environment with no

personal items behind them in camera; • • making sure the display name is the child’s first name, not a

personal email address etc; • • if possible, ensuring the child is working in a quiet environment

and • • making sure the child is appropriately dressed.

4. ADVICE FOR USING J2E

• Children must keep their log in credentials safe

and must only log in as themselves.

• The ‘Chat’ feature is managed by teachers. Children cannot message each other and cannot upload photos. However, you must ensure that children do not share URLs.

• Teachers will only respond to messages during school time.

• You need to ensure that your children are sending appropriate messages at all times.

Thank you for your support in keeping all our children as safe as possible.

Spelling Rule.

• A suffix is a unit of meaning that is added to the ending of a

word to change or add to its meaning.

• Adding the suffix ly.

• Ly is added to an adjective (describing word) to form an

adverb. (a word that tells you how, when, where or why

something happens.)

• If the root word ends in –y with a consonant letter before it,

the y is changed to i, but only if the root word has more than

one syllable.

Root Word Suffix New word Spelling word

happy ly happi ly happily

angry ly angri ly angrily

• If the root word ends with –le, the –le is changed to –ly.

Root Word Suffix New word Spelling word

gentle ly gent ly gently

simple ly simp ly simply

humble ly humb ly humbly

noble ly nob ly nobly

• If the root word ends with –ic, –ally is added rather than just

–ly.

Root Word Suffix New word Spelling word

basic ly basic ally basically

frantic ly frantic ally frantically

dramatic ly dramatic ally dramatically

Now use the forwards and backwards strategy to write out your

spellings.
