Studies have shown that children as young as three can act as bullies. I believe it is vitally important to educate my students about this problem to help prevent tragedies related to bullying.
I teach twenty wonderful students in an all-day Kindergarten classroom in a high-need community.
They are a beautiful, multi-cultural group with differing abilities. My classroom is hands-on and brains-on. We love to learn from one another and through music. We love to sing and dance. My goal is to inspire my students to believe in themselves and become lifelong learners. They have made my life brighter, and I would like to brighten theirs in return!
My Project
Not only do I want to combat bullying in our classroom, but I want my students to learn the proper way to respect and get along with one another. I believe this is the true way to prevent bullying in our schools. For that reason, I am requesting the book "Bullying in Schools" to learn more about bullying and how to combat it in my classroom.
I am also requesting a class set of the book "Don't Be a Bully, Billy" for the students to keep and take home. Linking this project with families will have an even bigger impact on my students!
Finally, I am requesting a table and doll for the students to use at our housekeeping center. This center will help my students learn and practice the appropriate social skills they will need for the rest of their lives! Help us prevent bullying by teaching children how to respect each other and get along!
Your support for this project will help fight against bullying in schools.
With these materials, my students can learn how to treat others with respect and how to react when bullied. You can change the lives of children by donating to this project! Your support will impact my students for years to come!
