Bullying Help!

by Debra P. VanDrew

Jun 2, 2011

Our school counselor does an awesome job with this topic. She comes into each classroom once a month, in addition to the one on one she does with students, and discusses different issues that the students may face during the school year. She has some wonderful resources to help with bullying.

First Grader bullying

by Sharon

Jun 2, 2011

I have a first grade boy who jumps on the other boys when they go to the washroom. I don't allow him to go when other boys are there now. He pushes when we are in line and threatens the other students.... "You better not tell!" We have been through many non-bullying sessions and he still is not getting it. The other students are... they still tell ...See More

Bullying culture

by Kare/Can

Jun 2, 2011

I wish I could be more optimistic but I think bullying permeats our culture. It is not just amongst the younger population. It is colleagues. Its on chatboards. Its the way service personnel are treated. Its pretty darn hard to get control of it with the students when it lives everywhere.

Adri Kare/Can I agree with you. We spend a lot of time in the classroom trying to teach children to be respectful and use their manners, but if this is not modeled at home it is very difficult for children to internalize this behavior.

Why do you think bullying is getting out of hand with so many students?

judy5ca I think a lot of it has to do with the models they're seeing. There are many parents nowadays who bully their own children and, sadly, there are teacher bullies. It's old but true: children learn what they live.

Step to Respect Program

by Chris

Jun 4, 2011

Hi Everyone,

My Elementary School will be using the "Steps to Respect" bullying prevention program next year for the first time (grades 3-5). Has anyone had any experience utilizing this program? I'd appreciate feedback on the program.

Thanks in advance!

country hicks Hi. No I haven't heard of it but would be interested if you could share here any information that you receive. I'm heading up a school wide bully prevention committee next year and am interested in new ideas.

Thanks, country hicks.

Bullying

by C. Wood

Jun 6, 2011

After heading the Bullying Committee for two years, I was transfered to another school in the district. I realized that our "Bullying" program should be district wide. We need to educate our children early about bullying. Maybe next year, our school will continue with the program.

Mae in Texas Last year our counselor taught a lesson on bullying. How are we supposed to combat bullying when TV glorifies it? My DD likes to watch TCL. The other day she left the TV on in the living room. I came in and caught a portion of Bridezilla. The "bride" was bullying her groom to be in the most horrid of ways. She was absolutely beyond the pale. I can'...See More
