Stand Up to Bullies-Intro
For this unit, we will be covering the concept of bullying and concepts associated with bullying. We will
go over how to prevent bullying, how to react to bullying, and how to know if you are the bully or being
bullied. It is important for us to know how to express ourselves and report something when negative
actions are expressed. By the end of the unit, you will be able to complete a project that shows us
what it feels like, sounds like, and looks like to be a bully. Also, what you can say, can do, and can help
if they arent a bully.
Stand Up to Bullies-Outline

This will be a six day unit, according to this tentative schedule:

Day One: We will cover the concept of bullying and related concepts of bullying with a picture book and short video. The students will
be asked to voice their opinions of what bullying is to them in their own video.

Day Two: Discuss many different feelings people have and how they will vary by acting out a feeling and completing a worksheet of
how each student feels towards a scenario. Student will know it is ok if other students are different and it is not ok to bully others that
are different.

Day Three: Explore how to respect your friends and compromise with your friends by making a puppet to practice friendship skills with
a partner. Students should recognize how to use appropriate friendship skills.

Day Four: We will sing a song in a circle representing appropriate ways to express yourself, along with the motions. After, students will
do a handout in which they circle the best way to express themselves in certain scenarios. The student will know how to express
ourselves without hurting someone as a bully would.
Day Five: Discuss when you are reporting or tattling by reading a book and doing an activity. Students will know how to differentiate
when to tell on a bully rather than tattling on an unnecessary situation.

Day six:
For the assessment, each student will draw pictures of how bully bees and sweet honey bees look, sound and feel based on a book we
will read in class. Then, I will ask what they can say and do to be a sweet honey bee and they will draw what they are thinking.
