(Revised and Updated) eBook #2 of The Sue Series:

Give Those Bullies ‘The Flick’ – How to Teach Children to Deal with Bullying – USA

This curriculum-friendly eBook has everything you need to teach children, (aged 4-9 years), how to deal with bullying (especially if they are alone). Use this simple 3-step teaching technique to successfully teach children how to be aware and automatically, confidently, and correctly take action, instead of being helpless or the victim. Follow a process (that I successfully used with my three young sons) to empower and enable children to be confident and capable of helping themselves or assisting others.

Step #1: Story Time (A Fun and Simple Introduction)

Step #2: Teaching Guide (Discussions and Practical Exercises)

Step #3: Learning Activities (Revision, Checklists, and Awards)

Included are:

Story Time: An exciting story adventure made up of 12 pages of rhyming couplets and color illustrations children can relate to that gently introduces a serious topic in a fun and simple way and demonstrates the basic steps to dealing with bullying through the character, Sue.

Teaching Guide: Preparation guidelines and detailed information to help prepare young children and teach them important things to remember when dealing with bullying and that allow for discussions about the reasons why they need to learn the important steps described in Step #1 Story Time.

This useful guide helps you to teach children how to recognize the signs that they or someone else is being bullied and about having ‘permission’ to make decisions when alone, and includes scenarios to help children to know how to identify what is or is not bullying. Children also learn what steps to take; about the role of family and community members; how to be brave, smart and strong; and what can happen to a child being bullied (or a child who bullies) if nothing is done about it.

The Teaching Guide includes practical exercises and basic step-by-step role-playing guidelines to help you teach children the physical steps and reinforce what has been taught so children can learn what to say and do and how to clearly and logically, think, focus, stay calm, and keep going. Children pretend to deal with bullying on their own and experience what bullying might be like in real life, while you physically see whether each child understands and can identify a bullying situation and correctly remember and action each step.

The guide also includes Teaching Checklists, each includes ten (10) vital points to check off to help you to know whether a child knows what action to take and so you are certain that the child can remember and follow each step through and act quickly and effectively (without prompting), and feels safe and confident using these vital new life skills.

Learning Activities: Fun learning activities to reinforce what has been taught in Step #2 (through letters, numbers, spelling, vocabulary, shapes, colors, writing, drawing, sorting, and matching. Select individual pages to meet different learning needs; select and laminate individual pages as reminder posters; use selected pages as flashcards; print activity pages for an individual child or a whole class. Children will learn how to appear stronger, what to say and do, and the important details they need to remember if faced with bullying.

Complete the process with the Brave, Smart, and Strong Award to present each child a personalized laminated award when you know that all the above comes automatically to them. Also included are important contact details for further information, resources, and support services.
