Bullying is a major problem that students face today, but the great news is that we can put an end to bullying. And one place to start is in the classroom. We have collected a list of anti bullying resources and field trip ideas that can make your class and school a healthy environment in which to grow and learn.
Last year, we collected a list of great videos to share in class during bullying awareness month. This film from Burger King is a great example of the bystander effect. Would customers step in when they watched the bullying? Find out by watching the video below!
Lori's Playworks workshop will help empower your elementary class and build their confidence. The Kindness Workshops will let students role play what to do when bullied. These bullying prevention workshops are a great interactive way for students to work together and build skills to combat bullying.
The Tenement Museum is another great field trip idea if you're heading to New York. This Museum focuses on the migrant, refugee, and immigrant experience in New York. You can also try a Professional Development Workshop where their experts will lead workshops on culture, discrimination and more. Even if you can't make it out to the museum, the museum shares teacher resources using materials from their archives.
