Help pupils build safer, more balanced technology habits with Healthy Tech Habits, part of the Chalk & Fern Digital Life collection.

Designed for Years 5–6, this illustrated workbook and matching teaching PowerPoint explore comfortable device use, physical hazards, regular breaks and protecting time for sleep, movement and relationships.

Through fictional scenarios and practical design tasks, pupils learn to spot risks, explain safer choices and recognise when to stop using equipment and ask an adult for help. Activities encourage thoughtful discussion about how technology affects wellbeing, recognising that different learners may need different routines.

What’s included:

• A beautifully designed 13-page PDF pupil workbook
• A matching 22-slide editable PowerPoint
• A five-minute recap of digital footprints, privacy and permission
• Vocabulary spelling and meaning checks for posture, wellbeing and hazard
• Safer-choice sorting and a device-safety scenario
• A balanced-afternoon planning activity
• A creative “design a safe device station” task
• Understanding checks and personal reflection
• Stretch and challenge activities exploring different digital routines
• A two-page optional independent research activity using teacher-approved sources

The warm clay botanical design matches the teaching slides. Generous response spaces and options to write, draw or explain aloud support SEND and mixed-ability groups.

Suitable for upper KS2 computing, PSHE, digital wellbeing and supported small-group teaching. Activities use fictional examples and require no live accounts.

This is Booklet 3 in the Digital Life sequence. The recap revisits My Digital Trail; briefly introduce those ideas when teaching this pack separately.
