About This Lesson
A free printable activity sheet and a short illustrated guide that explain passwords to children ages 8 to 12 in plain language.
Students learn what makes a password weak or strong, why length matters most, how to build a passphrase, why every account needs its own password, and who it is safe to share a password with.
The sheet includes sorting strong and weak passwords, building a practice passphrase, and deciding what to do when a friend asks for your password. Answers are included. It works for classroom, homeschool, or home use.
