Roundup: Bullying

October is National Bullying Awareness Month

To stop bullying, we have to enlist the help of the bystanders - that is, everyone in the school. Find out more about taking a whole-school approach to countering bullying and building community with our Pathways to Respect program.

Check out our classroom lessons on bullying and see a video of a master teacher who gets her second-graders talking about bullying with the help of puppets. 

Edutopia has advice on choosing resources to teach about bullying, plus a few examples of books and activities.  

The New York Times reviews some children's books that are aimed at teaching about bullying and empathy, including a couple of the books we use in our 4Rs Program.
