My Students

Have you or any of your friends ever been bullied? Have you or any of your friends ever bullied anyone?

I teach second grade at a public school in an impoverished area of Philadelphia.

I have a class of students who love to learn. Most of my students are very sweet, but some of my students tend to be bullies. It would be my dream to end bullying at my school.

My Project

I am requesting the book entitled Bullying In Schools for our classroom library. In addition, I am asking for pillows to sit on in our reading area for when we read our bullying books. I am also asking for assorted erasers so we can erase our mistakes. In addition, we would love to get folders so we have a place to store our bullying stories. Lastly, I need classroom management signs and a lesson planner so I can get additional strategies to manage my classroom. Please help us help ourselves.

Please help put an end to bullying in my school and in my classroom.

I am looking forward to expanding our bullying books collection because my students need strategies and books to prevent bullying in our classroom.
