My students need 20 copies of "Bulling in Schools" and other anti-bullying books, plus positive reinforcement materials, like gel pens, watercolor markers, and colored paper, to combat bullying in their lives and at school.
My students and I want to stop bullies in their tracks! Through books, knowledge, positive encouragement and reinforcement I know we can!
My students, who over 50% come from homes where there is little to no parental support, need motivation to do their best.
These incentives will give my students a boost towards doing their best at school and behavior. Additionally, the materials in this project will allow me to foster positive attitudes, creativity, and build character in my students.
My Project
Studies show that nearly 1 in 6 children are bullied in school on a regular basis. With that shocking statistic, it is no wonder that some children are scared to come to school, some physically ill from the thought that their bully might strike again. I want to teach my students that they do not need to be the victim or a bully. They need to be the one that makes the change and do their part to treat each other with respect and kindness. By providing them with a variety of anti-bully books, such as "Bullying in Schools", I am going to instill strategies that they will need to prevent bullying. The markers, poster board, pens, and construction paper will give my students the materials to express their feelings and emotions.
I want to make sure I can keep my students working hard, striving to do their best.
My goal is to help them to have a positive attitude, self image, and respect each other. Thank you for supporting my students!
