If you see bullying, either online or in the physical world, you have a choice. Be an upstander or a bystander.
I personally prefer to be an upstander. I'm not comfortable to sit back and not be involved.
It is important to teach children the value of being an upstander and support victims of cyberbullying. It is also important to encourage any children to report such things to a trusted adult.
One of my favourite websites for Internet Safety is Common Sense Education. There is a lot of videos and resources for young children and plenty of information for parents.
One thing I stumbled across is this digital passport task, where students can practice on 6 areas of e-safety.
Here is the link:

I made a video to explain the upstander task, E-volve.
Other fun games:
Password Protect (Security)
Twalkers (Multitasking)
Share Jumper (Privacy)
E-volve (Upstander)
Search Shark (Search)
Mix-n-Match (Creative Credit)
So, please let your children do these tasks and have fun.
I’m going to leave you with this video from Common Sense Education, explaining more about bullying.
