This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Students
Have you or your friends ever been bullied? Do you believe the pen is mightier than the sword? Is it possible to stop bullying through writing? I believe we can change the way children treat each other and stop the bullying epidemic with the right words printed on a page.
I teach at a high-poverty Title 1 school in east Texas.
My school provides federal programs such as free/reduced lunch to our vast population of economically disadvantaged children, and though my third grade students are energetic and very busy within the classroom approximately 70% of them meet the criteria to receive federal assistance. Fortunately, experiencing daily hardships does not dissuade them from thriving at school, which provides a safe, structured environment for most of them. They enjoy telling about their experiences and sadly enough not all of those experiences are positive. Many of my children have confessed to me that they have been bullied in some form or fashion. I wish to properly prepare them to overcome these social obstacles, to empower them to set high goals for themselves, and I can accomplish this with the help of generous donors, who see the problem and wish to put a stop to it. Please help me enhance my anti-bullying curriculum with these materials
My Project
Physical bullying ... verbal bullying ... Internet bullying ... When will it ever end? Obviously not until we properly educate our children on how to avoid such social pitfalls. That's why I am asking for 6 copies of the AKJ book, "Bullying in Schools", in order to enhance our anti-bullying curriculum and thus educate my children to help prevent bullying, along with several other books on bullying to add to our classroom library. In addition, my students would like an e-reader case and a Kindle Fire so that they may access even more books through Townsend Press. I intend to use these materials across the curriculum, integrating them in reading, social studies, writing, and literature. Please help us turn our classroom into a bully-free zone.
Stop Bullying in Schools with the help of AKJ Books and Townsend Press!
With your support, we can put an end to bullying in my classroom and in our school through cross-curricular activities. I am looking forward to working with my students on this very important social issue. All things are possible when we learn how to work together.
