1 approach
Saving and organising files means practising the idea at the table with a simple screen-free or sandbox check. We will demo once, then your child tries.
Materials: A shared-doc mock page on paper (or a sandbox doc); Two colored pencils for “two editors”. 1. Say the goal of Saving and organising files in plain words once. 2. Adult models one polite edit and one comment without overwriting someone else’s work. 3. Child practices three collaboration moves (edit, comment, or resolve) and names the etiquette rule. 4. Fresh check: one fresh collaboration etiquette choice. Record and stop. Done: three collaboration moves with an etiquette rule each. Proof: parent note of examples and results. Stop: End after the fresh check; keep optional challenge for another day.

Check understanding
- Save a piece of work with a meaningful file name following the class convention (e.g. 'Mia_Y4_Frogs_Report')
- Create a folder for a topic, move related files into it and find a file again in a later lesson
- Follow other agreed conventions for digital work, such as giving image sources, using a consistent heading style and saving a new version instead of overwriting
“Can your child save their school work with a sensible file name in the right folder — and find it again the next week?”
