Year 2 Unit 4 - Online Safety (FREE SOW)

In this Year 2 Wider World unit, we will explore what the internet is, how it is used, and how to search safely. We will see how the internet can help us, while learning that not everything online can be trusted. This builds on our earlier learning in EYFS and Year 1, when we read Chicken Clicking and discussed online dangers. In Year 2, the focus is on practical steps to find information online, providing a foundation for deeper understanding when we revisit this topic in future years.

This free planning bundle includes a detailed scheme of work, a long-term plan showing our entire curriculum at a glance, a Year 2 roadmap illustrating the progressive design across the year, and a comprehensive knowledge organiser highlighting key vocabulary and summarising the progression of skills and knowledge. It also provides British Values mapping and optional pre- and post-assessments. Explore the detailed content of each lesson by clicking the links below.
