Prompt the discussion by asking these questions: • Have you ever witnessed an act of bullying? • What type of bullying was it? • Where did it happen? • Did anyone report the incident? • Do you think bullying is a problem in this school? Ask students not to use names when discussing bullying incidents. Wrap up the discussion by asking students what they think they can do to help prevent bullying.

Have students research news stories where bullying may have played a part in a tragedy at another school. (They can use the Internet to search.) Have them print out news articles. You may want to display them on a bulletin board below an anti-bullying heading. Have students write appropriate slogans and vote on one to use as the heading.
