  1. Bullying in our school. Ms. Marilyn Machuca Incarnation School mmachuca1@yahoo.com

  2. How do you think Mario is feeling? • Adam and Mario like to play on the playground. • Adam, one of the taller boys, began to tell lies about Mario. He said Mario had stolen stickers from the teacher’s desk. Then he said Mario smelled funny and started calling Mario “Stinky Skunk.”

  3. How do you think Mario is feeling? • Adam told other kids to not to talk to Mario or they’d be stinky too. Next, when Mario tried to play on the playground, Adam and other kids told him to go away. • Next, Adam tells two other boys to follow Mario to the bathroom and push him around and call him names. Adam threatens him not to tell anyone or it will get worse. Now, Mario doesn’t want or go near the playground. ( Adapted from Imagine.. A school without bullying: A school climate approach to bullying prevention, 2004).

  4. How can you recognize a bully? • Bullying behavior is intended to hurt, is repeated and involves unequal power and control. • A bully can hurt your body (physical), your feelings (verbal) and how you might relate or interact with others or yourself (social or emotional). • Bullies can hurt you face to face or behind your back.

  5. What is bullying? • Bullying is being mean to others, on purpose, to hurt them or their feelings. • Take a quick survey in your class and ask other students if they have had any of these experiences. Use the information from your survey and the previous example provided to define the problem. • Public Policy Analysis: Define the problem. • Public Policy Analysis: Gather Evidence of the problem

  6. Why do we have bullies? • Most bullies do not feel good about themselves. They might have problems at home, low grades or might be jealous of others. They may feel alone. They have a low self-esteem. They think by hurting others it might make them feel better. • Most bullies want to control situations. They want to have power over someone or others. • Sometimes bullies only follow examples they’ve experienced or are exposed to at home. • Public Policy Analysis: Identify the Causes

  7. What’s our Policy? • At our school we have a zero tolerance policy! It means we do not condone any type of bullying! None, zilch…nada! • We want to make sure we provide all students a safe environment. • Public Policy Analysis: Evaluate an Existing Policy

  8. How can you help? • Even though we have a Zero Tolerance policy. Bullying exists and is getting worse. It is a problem that affects everyone. • What can you do to make sure we don’t feed into it and prevent it from happening? How can we turn a bully into a friend? • Here are some solutions: 1. Don’t be quick to react, stay calm, think and act positive. 2. Stand up for yourself. 3. Turn a bully into a friend. 4. Create programs for parents and students to learn to deal with bullies and fight against bullying.

  9. Which solution is the best? • Everyone wants to feel protected and safe in school and there are great ideas to solve the bullying problem. • However, is there one solution to this problem? • Which do you think will be the most effective solution? • Public Policy Analysis: Develop Solutions • Public Policy Analysis: Select the Best Solution
