Hello Class,
Today you will look at one of many experiences faced by teens throughout the world. Bullying is what we will look into on a deeper level with this assignment.
All of you at some point or another have likely: been bullied, witnessed/knew about a bully or victim, and maybe at some point during your life been a bully yourself without even knowing it. As an administrator at SAS I can tell you bullying is more common than you might think. I personally have dealt with many levels of bullying in our school the past few years (face to face, cliques, chatrooms, facebook, texting, etc), and some of these occurrences have been referred to the RCMP (2 this year alone). It is a serious social happening that occurs everywhere in life unfortunately, but it should not be tolerated or accepted on any level within society and we need to stand up to those who think they can get away with it.
This lesson will help you understand bullying experiences and hopefully provide you with strategies for the next time you face a bully or help one of your friends who experiences this unacceptable behavior.
Please remember to read all the instructions on the assignment. The project is worth 25 marks and is due on Sunday January 9th at 11:59pm.
I would like to wish you all success at your final exams. Your next assignment for this course will be sent out after your exam schedule.
If you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact me anytime.
Mr.C
