Engage students in exploring real-world issues and solving authentic problems using digital tools and resources. || How are the bystanders affected by bullying? How are the victims affected by bullying? How is the bully affected from their behavior? || [|filimentality] Paper Pencil Jing video: linked in Segment 4 (instructions on how to get to the filimentality through class wikispace) || (Artifact: link to real world, website, book, picture, etc.) || Yesterday we talked about using self-control in difficult situations. Today we are going to begin talking about bullying. How many of you think that bullying can be a really difficult situation that requires a lot of self-control? In recent years, bullying has become a major problem. About 1 in 7 students in kindergarten through grade 12 are victims of bullying. Therefore, I think this is an important topic for us to discuss. Before we begin, I want each of you to know that our classroom is a safe environment and everyone should feel free and comfortable to participate in our class discussions. We will respect each other’s opinions and we will not judge, make fun of or ridicule anyone’s responses. Now with that being said… I would like everyone to lie your head down on your desk with your head buried in your arms and eyes closed for a minute. I am going to ask you a few easy questions about bullying. I want you to consider each question carefully and answer honestly by a show of hands. Here we go. Teacher will record the number of hands raised in the table such as the one below on the board after each response. Put __1__ finger up if you see it once a day. Put __2__ fingers up if you see it more than once a day. Put __3__ fingers up if you see it once a week. Put __4__ fingers up if you see it more than once a week. Put __5__ fingers up if don’t see it very often. Thank you for your honesty. You many now lift your heads. I have recorded your responses on the board. Let us take a look at the responses together. Are you surprised by any of the results? Why, or why not? || (Factual information/Vocab Includes sample feedback loop) || Can someone please tell me how you would define the term bullying? Student response….. Thank you for sharing. Is there anything else we can add to that definition to make it more descriptive? Allow time for student response. Very good. Now that we have come up with our own definition, let’s compare our definition to the definition I found on the website stopbullying.gov. Stopbullying.gov defines bullying as this. Can you see any similarities or differences in the two definitions? Boys and girls stopbullying.gov is a government website managed by the [|U.S. Department of Health & Human Services]. We know this by looking at the extension .gov at the end of the web address, .gov stands for government. Therefore, we can trust this site as a reliable source of information. Now that we know the definition of bullying, let’s talk about the many ways in which bullying can occur. Let me ask you a question. Actually both forms of bullying are harmful and have negative effects and are unacceptable behaviors. Bullying affects many people. The victim, the bystanders (someone who witnesses the action occurring), and believe it or not the bully. Boys and girls how do you think bullying and teasing affects each group of these people? Raise your hand if you have an idea to share. __Bullied student:__ Possible answers: __Bystanders:__ __Bully:__ Bullying also affects our families. Parent’s worry for their children if they are struggling in school. Your teachers are affected because we have to help resolve negative situations and it hurts us to see a student being hurt. Can you think of anyone else that may be affected by bullying? Are any of you surprised to hear that bullying affects a lot more people than just the victims? Why are you surprised? Well as you can see bullying affects many people but the good news is that no one is helpless and can resolve bullying issues. In the next lesson we are going to be discussing healthy way to deal with bullying. || (Includes multiple intelligence strategy: Hands-on, small groups, reteaching strategy) || Alright, I would like all eyes up front please. I have created for you a sampling of links on bullying from the internet that I would like you to explore today. After checking out each link you will need to pick out three out of links to respond to. Each link is to help you learn more about the effects of bullying. Some are personal stories, some are pieces of literature, and some are facts and I even through a game in there for you to do also. However, you can’t choose the game as one of your choices to respond to. What I would like you to do is carefully consider each question. Your answers should free of grammatical errors and should be well thought out and personal. || (Detailed directions on how to complete activity) || * [|Jing Video: How to Open and View Filimentality Sampler] Have fun! ||
