3. Bully Prevention
Do you think since last year’s training, has bullying increased, decreased, or stayed the same?
Most bullying is fueled by peer attention. What do you think this means?

4. This year’s focus of ANTI-BULLYING training is the fuel of aggressive and mean behavior. Attention from those watching! What can ALL students do to stop aggressive and mean behavior?

5. Taking away peer attention
Students can take away the peer attention that keeps problem behaviors going by:
Telling someone teasing you to “stop”
Walking away from problem behavior
Helping another student by saying “stop” or by walking away from problem behavior with them.
Telling an adult
Not commenting on Social Media sites

7. “Stop, Walk and Talk” Plan
When responding to bullying behavior, you need to follow the 3 step plan by telling the person to:
“STOP” hand signal.
WALK away calmly, if using the STOP signal doesn’t work.
TALK to an adult about the problem, if using the STOP signal and walking away doesn’t work and the behavior continues.
1. STOP 2. WALK 3. TALK
Slides 10, 11, and 12 (5 minutes)

8. How Can You Help WOHS be a “bully-free” school?
Don’ t be a “bystander” (zebra), someone who just watches and fuels the negative behavior. Be an “upstander” (panther), someone who is willing to step up and assist another person who is being bullied. Assist the student in calmly walking away from the bullying behavior.
This slide is intended to prep students for the Zebra videos. Be sure to discuss a bystander and upstander.

9. Video of Zebra
Make sure your volume is up.
Show Video #1, discuss
Show Video #2, discuss

10. Always a Panther!!!
Never a Zebra!

11. Bullying is NOT a Laughing Matter
Show your school PRIDE by demonstrating respect for the “Stop, Walk and Talk” Bully Prevention plan.

12. When should you talk to an adult?
Even when you use Steps 1 and 2 (STOP and WALK),, to prevent students will continue to behave inappropriately toward you or someone else. When that happens, you should use Step 3, (TALK to an adult), for additional support in stopping the bullying behavior.
Important Note: If any student is in danger, Steps 1 and 2, STOP and WALK, should be skipped, and the incident should be reported immediately to an adult.

13. What’s the difference? “I’m not going to snitch on someone.”
“I don’t want to feel like I’m tattling on someone.”
What is the difference between “talking” vs. “tattling”?

14. Wh0 can you “Talk” to? Administrator Librarian Bus Driver
