Bullying Prevention is such a vital topic to cover with your students. While I believe in implementing a proactive counseling program that establishes key character traits like kindness and empathy, I also believe in a preventative one that directly educates students on the harmful effects of bullying. Check out these activities you can use to spread awareness. Reminder: If you’re reading this in October, it is Bullying Prevention Month! Bullying Prevention Month Idea 1: Host a Fun Run A fun run is a great way to promote Bullying Prevention Month! Have students pledge how many laps they want to run. If your budget allows, give a type of reward to students upon completion. This could be bracelets, stickers, pencils, temporary tattoos, etc. (Hopefully with a bullying prevention phrase on it!) Oriental Trading and Amazon likely have cheap options. You could collaborate with PE teachers to do the activity or do it at recess. I did this a few years ago and my upper elementary kiddos LOVED it! Tip: Keep track of the laps so you can share the grand total in the morning announcements or in a parent newsletter. Bullying Prevention Month Idea 2: Videos Another great way to start conversations around bullying is by sharing videos with students. Sharing bullying prevention awareness via videos is one of my go-to activities plus it's perfect for distance learning! Showing a short video is a starting point for deeper conversations and is a great way to get students engaged in the content. Check out some of my favorites: For the Birds Who is it for: K-2 What's it about? This cute Pixar silent film shows how one bird who looks different than others. Because of his differences he is made fun of. Why do I show it? Because there are no words in the video, students get to interpret the context of the film. Depending on age you can take the conversation in different ways to discuss themes of kindness, bullying prevention, etc. The NED Show Who is it for: 3-5 What's it about? This animated video introduces the term

March is Cerebral Palsy Awareness Month so I thought it would be appropriate to share a few facts with you about CP. And, to ask you to join us in spreading a little extra awareness and acceptance this month for those with Cerebral Palsy. Did you know?... 1. Over 800,000 Americans, and over 17,000,000 million people worldwide are impacted by Cerebral Palsy, the most common motor disability in children. Can you believe those numbers? And, still, there is very little federal funding for research and awareness. 2. Cerebral palsy is incurable – Cerebral palsy is damage to the brain that cannot currently be cured. Treatment and therapy help manage effects on the body. 3. Cerebral palsy is non-progressive – The brain lesion is the result of a one-time brain injury and will not produce further degeneration of the brain. 4. There are wonderful organizations like Reaching for the Stars, a Foundation of Hope for Children with Cerebral Palsy, that need your help in spreading awareness for our kids. You can start by checking out their website: www.reachingforthestars.org 5. Children with CP can absolutely take your breath away, just by being themselves? And, teach you more about life than anyone else on earth ever has or ever will without speaking a single word? I did not know any of these facts three years ago...but, today I sit here and write these words to spread awareness, foster acceptance, educate, and unify. All because God chose me to be "momma" to a sweet little guy named Jack Wesley. I consider myself blessed and thank the Lord for giving me the chance to witness something so remarkable each and every single day... pure joy, no judgment, perseverance, and the ability to soften even the hardest hearts. Please join us in the fight for our kids with CP and Be Blessed!! Tiffany There is no stopping this guy!
