Anti-Bullying Game-Based Program A game-based, on-line bullying prevention program, modeled on DPI Bullying Prevention Curricula,- free to schools for a limited time. http://www.bluekids.org/educators/el_pg_actnow.asp Students choose characters and role-play through a typical day at middle school, learning to: * Distinguish between bullying and other behaviors. * Help a victim of bullying, including how to ask an adult for help. * Advocate using student-created anti-bullying campaigns * Define and respond to sexual harassment * Demonstrate appropriate social skills through role-playing, peer interaction, and written activities. * Identify and communicate three ways teachers, administrators, and parents can improve school climate. Books on Bullying Mr. Peabody’s Apples – by Madonna, What I like about Me! By Mike Sallamoto, Chrysanthemum by Kevin Henkes Chrysanthemum thinks that she has a perfect name. That is until she goes to school. Victoria points out that her name only just fits on her badge and that she is named after a flower. School gets worse until she meets the music teacher, Mrs Delphinium Twinkle. And suddenly Chrysanthemum blossoms. No Body Likes Me, Everybody Hates Me by Michele Borba How the Moon Regained Her Shape is specifically written to help children deal with bullying. Influenced by Native American folktales, this fascinating story deals with overcoming adversity, self-confidence, and understanding the phases of the moon. After the sun insults her, the moon gets very upset and disappears - much to the chagrin of rabbits who miss their moonlight romps. With the help of her many friends and admirers, the moon gains self-confidence each day until she is back to her full size. The "For Creative Minds" section explains the phases of the moon and answers those pesky questions like "why is the moon up during the day?," and "why does the shape of the moon change? |

People are People
by Songwriters: Gore, Martin Lee
Thank you for sharing Jenny A. !!!! People are people so why should it be, You and I should get along so awfully? So we're different colours And we're different creeds And different people have different needs It's obvious you hate me, Though I've done nothing wrong. I never even met you. So what could I have done? I can't understand What makes a man Hate another man Help me understand People are people so why should it be You and I should get along so awfully Help me understand Now you're punching and you're kicking And you're shouting at me I'm relying on your common decency So far it hasn't surfaced But I'm sure it exists It just takes a while to travel From your head to your fist I can't understand What makes a man Hate another man Help me understand" |
