# Lesson 272: Celebrate your tech creation day

💡 TECHNOLOGY & FUTURE SKILLS (40 Lessons) • 🟣 D. Creating with Technology

← Back to Level 1

## Objective

I can show and talk about a simple tech creation I made. I can celebrate my effort, share my work with trusted people, and remember to follow our family rules for photos, videos, and screens.

## Materials

- Any tech creation your child made (drawing app picture, photo, voice recording, small video, or digital story)
- Plain paper or a notebook page
- Pencils, crayons, or markers
- Optional: tablet, phone, or computer to show the creation
- Trusted adult helper (parent, carer, or teacher)

## Mini-lesson — Sharing and celebrating tech creations

When we use technology to create, we can make pictures, sounds, stories, or short clips. It feels good to be proud of our work.

What is a tech creation?

- A drawing you made in a paint or drawing app.
- A photo you took with help from an adult.
- A short voice recording of you reading or singing.
- A tiny video or slideshow you made with a grown-up.

Safe ways to share

- We show our work to trusted adults and friends, not strangers.
- We ask before posting anything online.
- We follow school and family rules about photos and names.

Celebrating effort, not just the device

- We say: "You tried your best." and notice hard work.
- Simple projects are just as special as fancy ones.
- The tablet is just a tool — the ideas come from you.

Staying kind and private

- We do not share things that might hurt or tease someone.
- We do not share full names, addresses, or schools with strangers.
- If we feel unsure, we ask a trusted adult before sharing.

Adults can say: "Today is your tech creation day. We will share your work in safe ways and cheer for your effort."

## Guided Practice — Plan your tech celebration

Use this activity to plan a simple "tech creation day" at home or in class.

1. Help your child pick one tech creation they would like to share (a picture, photo, short recording, or story).
2. On paper, draw three little icons: a screen, a heart, and a shield. Explain: screen = what I made, heart = how I feel, shield = how we stay safe.
3. Talk about the screen: "What did you make with tech?" Help your child tell one short sentence about their creation.
4. Talk about the heart: "How do you feel about your work?" (proud, happy, excited, brave).
5. Talk about the shield: "Who is it safe to show this to?" Circle trusted people (family, classmates, teacher), and cross out strangers.
6. Practise saying: "This is my tech creation. I feel proud because I worked hard."
7. When ready, invite one or two trusted people to watch or look while your child shares. Clap or cheer together.

## Practice — My tech creation celebration page

Use this page to help your child record and remember their tech creation day.

1. On a new page, write the title: "My tech creation celebration".
2. Ask your child to draw or print a small picture of their tech creation (a screenshot, photo, or simple drawing).
3. Under the picture, help them finish this sentence: "I made this using ______." (for example: "a drawing app" or "a camera").
4. Next line: "I feel ______ about my work." (proud, happy, excited, brave).
5. Add a safety line: "I can share this with ______." Help your child write: "my family", "my class", or "my teacher".
6. At the bottom, write: "We follow our family rules when we use screens."
7. Read the page together and clap. You can hang it near your learning area to remember this celebration day.

## Quick Check — Tech creation celebration

Answer each question about creating with tech, sharing safely, and celebrating effort.

1) What is a tech creation?

A stranger you meet online. A picture, photo, or recording you made using technology. A toy that you lost.
Tech creations are things you make using apps, cameras, or other digital tools.

2) Who is it safe to show your tech creation to?

Trusted adults, family, and classmates. Any stranger who asks online. People who are unkind or tease you.
We share our work with people we know and trust.

3) What should you do before posting a picture or video online?

Post it secretly. Tell no one and hope it is safe. Ask a trusted adult if it is okay.
Trusted adults help decide what is safe to share online.

4) Which sentence is kind and safe to say during tech creation day?

"Your work is bad." "You tried hard and I like your ideas." "I will post your photo without asking."
We use kind words and respect each other's privacy.

5) What is more important than having the fanciest device?

Using your ideas and effort to create something. Showing off to strangers online. Playing games all night.
Your ideas and hard work matter more than the device.

6) If a picture shows private information (like your school name or address), what should you do?

Share it everywhere. Hide it from adults. Ask a trusted adult and probably do not share it online.
We protect private information and ask adults for help.

7) How can you show you feel proud of your tech creation?

Say nothing and feel upset. Share it with trusted people and say, "I worked hard on this." Tease others about their work.
Pride is shown by sharing kindly and talking about your effort.

8) Who sets the rules for how you use tech during celebration day?

Your family and teachers. The tablet by itself. A random person online.
People, not devices, are in charge of the rules.

9) What should you do if someone posts your picture online and you feel uncomfortable?

Say nothing and feel worried alone. Argue with strangers online. Tell a trusted adult and ask for help.
Adults can help change or remove posts and keep you safe.

10) What is the big idea of this lesson?

To share everything with everyone. To celebrate tech creations in safe, kind ways while following rules. To stop you from ever creating with tech.
We want children to enjoy sharing their tech creations safely and kindly.

## Exit ticket (student)

😀 I can talk about my tech creation and how to share it safely. 🙂 I know some ideas about safe sharing but still need practice. 😅 Celebrating tech creations and staying safe still feels a bit tricky.

#### Next time I will practise…
