Today we learned all about the POWER OF ONE! We had the pleasure of learning with two actors today who presented three bullying scenarios. Through their dramatic presentation and interactions with us as an audience we defined bullying as any situation where, because of a power imbalance, systematic behaviour occurs that is HURTFUL, PURPOSEFUL, and REPEATED where one person picks on another with the intent to cause harm and isolation. The actors explained that they will be acting out skits to show us the negative effects of specific types of bullying, the roles that people play that make bullying possible, and what each child can do to prevent bullying from happening in their school.
We will all be taking the Power of One Bully Prevention Oath and will be signing this contract. Look for it in the hallway real soon!
I will not bully others.
I will not stand by while others are bullied.
I will report and deal with bullying whenever I see it...
...because I have
THE POWER OF ONE!
