Mr Glenn's method on how to create passwords with 3 or 4 small words:
It's super easy to remember, you don't need symbols or capital letters and is just as hard to crack (unless someone knows it, of course!)
Less popular words are better.
A combination of 4 small words. For year 5 children, 3 words is fine because it will be over 8 characters long.
If you want to be fancy, add an underscore (this symbol _ ) in the middle of a word.
Four less common smaller words with no symbols can be strong and is far easier to remember for humans.
