5th Grade:
Unit Description: Bullying Prevention
The Bullying Prevention Unit in our Social-Emotional Learning curriculum helps students develop skills for recognizing, reporting and refusing bullying in order to foster a school community of safety and respect for all.
Lesson: Recognize, Report, Refuse (Bullying Prevention)
Summary: In this lesson, students will learn that bullying is mean or hurtful behavior that keeps happening, is unfair and one-sided. They will learn how to refuse bullying by being assertive communicators and how to seek help by reporting bullying. Research shows that students can reduce the chances of being bullied in the future by responding assertively.
Question: Ask your child if they have experienced bullying or negative jokes recently. Encourage them to tell you how it made them feel and let them know you’re there to support them.
6th Grade
Lesson: Recognizing Bullying
Summary: This week’s lesson will help your child understand the difference between bullying and joking around, and that joking can escalate and become bullying. Helping students understand when joking becomes bullying can reduce negative impacts on others.
Question: Tell your child about a time you witnessed or experienced bullying. Describe how this made you feel and ask your child what they might have felt.
