Don't Stand By
Witnesses to bullying are just as guilty as the bullies themselves. Using the video-diary format, viewers follow four young students who witness bullying and do something about it. Students see four ways a bystander can stand up to a bully: stop a bully together, talk to the bully, be a friend and tell an adult. Because bystanders are clearly a part of the bullying problem, these peer intervention strategies can dramatically decrease the incidence of bullying.

Are You a Bully?
Kids can be bullies and not even realize it. Viewers learn that bullies are not always the kids who hit or intimidate. The program encourages students to recognize bullying behaviour in themselves. Viewers are introduced to five different bullies including Mark who thinks that tripping others on the bus and being the tough kid in school is "cool," Abby who teases and taunts Lauren in dance class, and Nicky who didn't make the basketball team and consequently spreads rumours that Jimmy made the team only because his Dad knows the coach. Through discussion and activities, your students will clearly understand bullying behaviour and its effect on others.
