Last week I had the pleasure of presenting a bully workshop to a group of 6th grade girls that are led by Team Leader, Nancy Ankey at Dent Middle School. I worked with two groups of 19 students in each class.
First off, ladies, I would like to thank you for your attention, participation and your nice manners! You represented your school well!
Secondly, don't forget what we talked about in terms of body language, the power of your voice, communication and kindness. If we all treated each other with respect and kindness, our first line of bully self defense, bullying wouldn't be the problem it is today.
Lastly, don't forget to meet your school resource officer. These people are kind, caring and considerate and are there to help you. Instead of waiting to get called into the school resource officers office because you are in trouble, stop by and introduce yourself.
Mrs. Ankey commented, "Thank you so much for informing the 6th grade girls at the TWO Academies. The class was very interactive and the students were focused on your techniques for self defense. I can see where the knowledge of using their voice and body language can prevent them from being a victim. This information will increase their self confidence and comfort level in a bullying situation. Your class was excellent!"
This was a great group of girls and I feel confident that they learned some things that will make them think about what it means to bully someone else, as well as provide non aggressive ways to deal with a bully in school.
