Bullying is a painful reality for a majority of Canadian children and youth. Whether they are the ones being hurt, or the ones being aggressive towards others, children may find talking to adults about bullying difficult. Adult intervention is the key to bullying prevention. Parents and educators alike need to be aware of the behaviours and emotional signs that children are being victimized or are using power aggressively. In this school resource guide you will find activities to engage students from a range of grade levels and to be adapted to the time that you have available. We encourage you to engage the whole school and community during bullying awareness week.
