You notice that a student in your class is taking another student's belongings and destroying them. This has been happening every day. You see this happening, but it's not happening to you. Are you involved in this bullying situation? What should you do?
YES! If you see a bullying situation happening, you are already involved, even if you are not the target or the bully. Remember, a bystander sees and hears bullying happening, but they do nothing about it. We want to be an UPSTANDER! You can tell the bully to stop or tell a teacher what's going on.
Give three examples of what cyberbullying can look like other than directly saying mean and hurtful things to someone.
Spreading rumors and gossip, "liking" mean/hurtful comments, saying hurtful messages in a group chat, leaving mean/hurtful comments on someone's post, mocking/making fun of someone's post, sharing photos around with the intent to embarrass someone, etc.
