Shows elementary students how to take an active role in stopping a bully. Notes that a bystander who does nothing helps the bully, not the victim. Reminds students they can tell the bully how they feel, stand up together as a group, be an ally to the victim, or tell an adult. Encourages them to be part of the solution, not a passive part of the problem.

I like this video as children are the actors--they are very relatable for my students. The video is thoughtful and highlights some great ways to deal with bullying.
Perfectly integrated to my bullying unit.
Like this because there is question after every situation for the group discussion
