1 BULLYING 1 Lucia– How does this make you feel? Not too good does it. Victims of bullying feel this same pain your are feeling right now. They deal with this on a day to day basis. It causes pain in their hearts that sometimes they just can’t withstand. Now, I am going to talk to you about bullying, the types of bullying, share a story of a student who was bullied, give you some strategies to deal with bullying. And before we all leave today we are all going to KNOW and FOLLOW the Golden Rule which is?.... “Treat others the way you want to be treated”.

2 “Treat others the way you want to be treated”
The Golden Rule “Treat others the way you want to be treated” 2 Lucia

3 Bullying Definition Behavior that is intentional, hurtful and repeated by one or more persons. Bullied students are teased, harassed, and assaulted verbally or physically. 3 Lucia Read definition. Look at the picture of this little girl here. Do you see them in the background. What do you think the other girls are doing? (talking bad about her), (excluding her from their group), (teasing her). Do you think these things are bullying. How do you think this girl feels? She is going to go home from school and be thinking about how she is going to deal with this for the entire school year. It’s not right. And there are students in this school that feel this same way. There are kids in this classroom that feel the same way. We need to stop and think about what were doing and “treat other people the way you want to be treated”.

4 Did you know? The word “Bully” use to mean the total opposite of what it means now. Five hundred years ago, it meant friend, family member or sweetheart. 4 Penny

5 Three Types of Bullying
Direct Indirect Cyber bulling 5 Penny

6 Direct Physical – hitting, kicking, pushing, stealing, hiding or ruining someone’s things. Making someone do something they don’t want to do. Verbal – name calling, teasing, insulting, threats. 6 Penny Pushing in the hallway, hiding someone’s food at the lunch table. Teasing someone about the way they look. Name calling. No one in here has the right to call anyone a name that is insulting or offensive.

7 Indirect Relationship Bullying – gossiping, spreading rumors and lies about someone. Making someone feel left out or rejected. 7 Lucia Which one of these types of bullying do you think boys are involved in? Which one do you think girls are involved in? At one school there were these kids who thought they were the cool kids and they had this signup sheet for other kids who wanted to sit with them at lunch. What happen was kids would sign up and they would pass the sign up sheet around to see who was rejected or not. This is mean and unacceptable and do you think this is the way those kids would want to be treated?

One person trying to beat up another. A group of people ganging up against others. 11 Carla Not only are these things wrong morally but they are also illegal.

16 Kristina A Calco 16 Lucia Her name is Kristina. In middle school she was a 4.0 honor student who always strived for perfection in everything she did. She was extremely artistic and some of her work was chosen to be on the cover of the school yearbook. She also designed some of the school t-shirts. She was a shy girl so she joined yearbook staff and newspaper staff to help her overcome her fears. Even though she wasn’t a good athlete she joined the swimming team, volleyball team and track team. Kristina supported her school in every way. She attended numerous sporting events like basketball and football. After graduating from 8th grade, she went to high school and tried out for the JV cheerleading team. This was written in her journal “Me, Kristina, I made the cheerleading squad for high school! JV too! I’m so proud of myself!” But despite all her accomplishments there were some students who would still CHOOSE to drag her down. You see in Middle school she was tormented, teased, ridiculed, and called ugly. She never told a single adult about what happen. Her friends would have to console her and tell her she wasn’t ugly and tell her she was beautiful. However, the bullying didn’t end she was a sensitive girl who made feel to ugly on a daily basis by her own peers. By the time she was in 9th grade she actually believed she was ugly. Just months shy of her 16th birthday, Kristina committed suicide.

Walk, sit or stand with confidence, and do not be afraid to look people in the eyes. Even if it is uncomfortable.
