8EFGH Against Bullying Everyone has the right to feel safe coming to school. Unfortunately, that isn't always the case. Some kids have to deal with bullying each and every day. As a team, we are going to take a stand against bullying and learn why we need to make a difference.

For the purpose of this assignment, you are going to research different aspects of bullying. In researching this topic, you'll find that any "bullying situation" has a person being bullied, a person doing the bullying, people that watch and do nothing, and finally people that watch and do something about it.

When you have completed the necessary research, you will create a presentation which describes the topic of bullying, identifies the roles of different people, and explains why it has to stop. Your presentation should have an impact on your audience and make people think twice about bullying others.

And the research begins: Be sure to record all of your information, so that you will have what you need when it is time to create your presentation. You are also required to site your sources at the end, so be sure to keep track of where you are getting your info.
