The Tweeting Galah

Beschreibung

Educating digital citizens through storytelling. Unique and quirky Australian characters bring to life the common experiences faced by children growing up with technology in the 2020s. The Tweeting Galah series is the perfect collection of stories for teaching children how to stay safe online. It is designed to entertain and educate, with an emphasis on how to embrace technology and use it in a positive, purposeful way. Join Gabbo the Galah, Pablo the Penguin and Pebbles the Possum, along with the whole feathery (and furry) gang, as they navigate a world of social media, gaming and texting. Each story ends with reflection questions to guide conversations with children. An effective unplugged resource for teaching cyber safety, digital citizenship, ICT, digital literacy and digital technologies! The Tweeting Galah is made up of four short stories - "The Tale of the Tweeting Galah" Despite being told not to use his phone while flying, Gabbo finds the temptation too great. He learns the hard way that when you post something online, ANYONE can see it. ¿ "The Sensational Saga of the Bumbling Bilby" Sure, it was funny when Balbina the Bilby fell over during her PE lesson ... but it is not so funny when her friends posted a video of it online and EVERYONE sees it. "The Strange Story of the Singing Clownfish" Clancy the Clownfish has made a new online friend. But when she starts digging deeper, she realises that her 'friend' may not be who they say they are ... "The Curious Case of the Overly Playful Platypus" Presley the Platypus loves playing on his new iPad. However, it stops becoming so fun when the iPad begins taking over Presley's life.
