In Year 5, students learned about the importance of recognizing and avoiding online spam. They discovered that spam often includes unsolicited emails with too-good-to-be-true offers, which can be scams designed to steal personal information. To stay safe, students were taught to never click on suspicious links or download attachments from unknown senders. They also learned to verify the authenticity of offers by checking the sender’s email address and looking for signs of phishing, such as poor grammar and urgent language.
By being cautious and skeptical of unexpected emails, students can protect themselves from online threats.
