Online Project Two: No Bullying Teach-In

Handout Two--Action Steps

Learning about the causes and effects of bullying can help students avoid becoming bullies and help victims cope with bullies. In this project, you will help other young people learn about bullying and discuss ways to solve problems related to bullying.

Action Steps

1. Read Handout Three--Lesson Plan.
   
2. Identify a group of younger students (Grades 3-5) that you can work with. You may also consider working with younger people in after-school programs, Boys and Girls clubs, and other youth groups.
   
3. Spend time preparing to teach the lesson. Study each step of the lesson so you will be ready to work with the younger people.
   
4. Go to the site and teach the lesson. After the lesson, ask the younger students' teacher to sign the Check Point below.
   
5. Complete the Stop and Think section. Keep track of the hours you spend on the project. They can be counted toward community service requirements.
   
6. Hand in the completed project handout to your teacher.

Stop and Think

• What important things did the younger students learn from your presentation?

• How did you do as a teacher?

• Do you think understanding the causes and effects of bullying is helpful in staying out of trouble? Why or why not?

• What did you learn about yourself through this experience?
