  1. Anti Bullying Policy Training West Memphis School District

  2. What is Bullying? Any intentional gesture or any intentional written, verbal or physical act or threat that is sufficiently severe, persistent or pervasive that it creates an intimidating, threatening or abusive educational environment for a student or staff.

  3. Why people watch the Bullying? • The bully is someone other people look up to and want to hang out with. • They want to "side" with the bully because to do that makes them feel strong. Siding with the bully's victim, on the other hand, would make them feel weak. • They're entertained by the bullying. • They don't think speaking up will help. • They're afraid that if they say something, the bully will turn on them. • Watching the bullying is a way to bully "vicariously." This means that they feel like they're getting their frustrations out by hurting someone even though they're not doing the hurting, just watching the hurting.

  4. Effects of Bullying: • Numerous studies on the effects of bullying have found that victims of bullying may be more: • withdrawn • depressed • anxious • insecure • shy • uninvolved with others • lonely • isolated • avoidant of school, places, or activities • suicidal

  5. Prevent Bullying in Schools by: • promoting and modeling the use of respectful language • fostering an understanding of and respect for diversity and difference • building relationships and communicating with families • constructively managing classroom behaviors • using positive behavioral intervention strategies • applying constructive disciplinary practices • teaching students skills including positive communication, anger management, and empathy for others • engaging students in school or classroom planning and decision-making • maintaining a safe and caring classroom for all students

  6. What to do if you see Bullying: • Tell the bully to stop. Examples: "Cut it out!", "That's not funny!", "How'd you like it if someone did that to you?" Let the bully know that what he or she is doing is stupid and mean. • If you feel like you can't speak up, walk away from the situation and tell the nearest adult. Get them to come help. This is not tattling! • Make sure the kid who's being bullied tells his parents, or a teacher. Offer to go with him if it will help. • If she doesn't want to talk to anybody, offer to talk to someone on her behalf. • Involve as many people as possible, including other friends or classmates, parents, teachers, school counselors, and even the principal.

  7. Discussion: • What are some ways you can stop bullying? • Give some examples that you have seen bullying on campus. • Were you ever bullied in any way growing up? How did that make you feel?

  8. Cyber-Bullying

  9. What is Cyber-Bullying? • Cyber-bullying is when is when a person, or a group of people ,uses the internet, mobile phones or other digital technologies to threaten, tease or abuse someone.

  10. Forms of Cyber-bullying • Sending threatening, taunting or teasing e-mails to someone. • Using a computer or any other tech to spread gossip or rumors, or to make someone’s private information public. • Pretending to be another person online so you can post or e-mail things that will embarrass or get that person in trouble. • Being a “pretend friend” online so you can later hurt or humiliate someone. • “Ganging up” on someone in a chat room or on a message board. • “Griefing” someone in an online video game by constantly picking on a new or inexperienced player. • Texting hurtful or rude comments to someone’s phone or Blackberry. • Using chat, IM, or a blog to exclude people, pick on people, or divide the “populars” from the “unpopulars.”

  11. Why do people Cyber-Bully? • It’s anonymous. The Web lets you hide behind a fake user name or alias, and many bullies feel protected by this “false identity.” • They want revenge. If a person is bullied in school, he might decide to fight back online. You don’t have to be a typical “bully” to be mean with IM or e-mail. • They think everybody’s doing it. Being mean online may seem like something that kids just do…simply a part of life these days. • They get caught up in it. Sometimes online bullies start out small, with a funny comment or a joke. Then things slowly get out of hand. They start posting meaner and meaner things, and before they know it, they’re really hurting people with the things they write. • They don’t understand how much it hurts. When you’re cruel to someone online, you can’t see her cry, so you might not understand just how bad you’re making her feel.

  12. Phone Rules: 1. People need your parents permission to take and share pictures of minors. 2. Ask permission before taking pictures of other people. 3. Never post pictures of yourself or other kids without first asking your parents or the parents of the other kids.
