Mrs. McCleary read a great book to students last Tuesday-- Bully B.E.A.N.S by Julia Cook. Students learned ways to be helpful bystanders when they see bullying happen instead of just watching it and doing nothing. Students took a "No Bullying Pledge" and drew pictures of examples of how to help stop bullying. When Mrs. McCleary saw students thinking hard about ways to banish bullying, she gave them four "Bully Beans" to help give them courage to stand up against bullying if/when they see it happening at school or elsewhere.
Bully Beans represent the courage you must have to stand up against bullies! It does take courage to stand up for what is right. |
Such an important thing to be learned and it is great to see the kids participate in activities that teach them to help their classmates in such situations.
