As I mentioned in my other response, I would have guidelines in place that would set up what my next step will be. If this is a continues problem I would notify the parents and hold a meeting withe the parents, the students, and the school social worker who can also help the family work through any problems. The meeting will hopefully provide insight as to why the student is bullying and may allow for other problems to come up in conversation as to why the student is actin this way.

If the bullying has not gone away, I would contact the parents. Often bullies have problems going on in their own life which prompts them to bully others. Because of this, contacting the parents is important to figure out what's happening. From there I would address the bully's problem and help them which in turn would prevent the bullying from occurring

I would prevent bullying in the classroom by making the classroom expectations clear. Talking with students at the beginning of the year and explaining the consequences of bullying could help prevent it from ithappening in the first place.

I would make my expectations of the kids very clear. Teaching young kids about this can be hard because they dont understand the convept of words hurt. So making sure they understand that is very important

I would meet with the students and there parents if I thought it was necessary. Most of the time when a student is bullying because of a different reason other than what they are bullying someone for. I would try to figure out what is going on in their lie to make them act this way. Then I would try my best to help them and make sure that they understand that bullying is not acceptable.

I would first go directly to the parents and try and have conferences with them. Also I'm hopeful that once they find out the situation that they will be emotionally invested and will be motivated to help solve the problem with their children. However if the problem persists then I will try to talk to them myself on my opinion of the situation and I guess take further measures if necessary.

I would implement a zero tolerance policy for any bullying that goes on inside or outside of the classroom. I know legally I can only take care of something that carries into school but if any cyberbullying goes on I would make sure my students know I will step in and do what I feel is necessary. That includes reporting it to parents, the principle, and having a talk with them myself.

I think it is important to take matters into my own hands and try to understand both students situations and if that could be affecting why they are bullying the other student. In order to do this, I would call in a meeting with the principal, and both set of parents. It is important to know that the parents are aware of what is going and understand the severity of it. I would make sure that they know that this behavior is unacceptable and if it continues then the punishments will become worse and worse as it goes.

It is very hard to prevent bullying in the first place because many students just don't listen, don't care, or may even change their mind about how they feel about it. However, in order to prevent it to the fullest extent that I can, I would make sure that my students would know that it is a completely unacceptable behavior and can lead to terrible things. I would make sure that they know the consequences of bullying and that I will keep a close eye on all of them to make sure that none of them are bullying anyone.

In my classroom I would make sure that my students know that bullying is unacceptable. I would teach them why it is wrong and what will happen if they are caught bullying anyone else.

I would take each student out separately to understand both sides of the story. Then I would conference with the both of them and re explain what my rules are with bullying and if I hear anything about it again that there will be worse punishments so for them to start treating each other correctly.

In my classroom, I would lay down the law. I would explain to the students what my rules are with bullying and how there will be no tolerance for it in my classroom.

If bullying were to continue in my classroom, ever after the proper measures were taken, I would have absolutely no tolerance left. I would have individual conferences with the bully and the student to talk about what was happening. For the bully, parents would obviously become more involved and I would require some sort of assignment. Like a paper typed about why they feel the need to bully someone and why they think it's ok. To me, the best way to stop the bullying is to sit down, and really make the bully think about why he/she is doing it. If they come to the conclusion that they have no reason to(which many don't) then I would assume the problem would gradually go away.

I would implement the golden rule. I would also explain how bullying happens more often than we think and that it effects others more than we think. I would try to be a type of teacher where students feel comfortable coming to me in situations regarding bullying and make sure my students know that my door is always open for them.

As a teacher, I would have a zero tolerance policy for bullying. If I took the proper measures and the bullying continued I would sit down with the student and try to figure out why they are bullying another student. If nothing comes from that, I would sit down with the principal/dean and the student and do whatever the dean or principal suggest. I would treat it as a trial and error process, but I personally think students who are bullies lack attention, and if you give them positive attention, then you may be able to put a stop to bullying in the classroom.

I think it is most important to clearly express your policy about bullying at the beginning of the year. If a teacher shares they have a zero tolerance policy when it comes to bullying and what actions would occur if you see it, students are less likely to bully each other because they know the consequences of their actions. I also think when you get to know the students at the start of the school year, you can get to know what their home life is like too. Are their parents verbally abusive to that student? If students are talked to in a mean manner at home, they are most likely to bring that behavior to school. If you know about home life, you can keep an extra eye on those students.

I think that I would address bullying at the beginning of the school year as a preventative measure. I would show a video, relevant to the grade level, and place posters around my room to reenforce what the video spoke about. I would also set up standards about what measures I would take it bullying happens in our classroom like a conference and then communicating with the parents. I think if bullying did come up in my classroom I would address it with the student and once again tell them what actions I will take to make this stop and make the classroom a safe space, such as informing the parents of what I have witnessed.

If two students were still engaged in a bullying situation in my classroom, I would of course follow the school’s required course of action, but what else I would do in my own classroom depends on the situation. If it was physical violence I would definitely need to get other adults in the building involved because that is a very unsafe environment for my students, and as we learned in many places teachers are not allowed to actually touch the students to pull them apart. If it was verbal bullying first I would talk to the students individually so I could get a good idea of the situation. Then if I thought they could work it out I would have a time for them to both come in and talk to each other either with me or a school social worker to work it out. If that was not going to be an effective option then I would do everything I could to keep those two students separate in the classroom, making sure they were on opposite sides and never got partnered up to try to avoid the bullying.

One way to prevent bullying in the first place is through social emotional learning. Many elementary schools already have things in place such as ‘the golden rule’ that provide these positive messages such as ‘treat others the way you want to be treated’. This is a good strategy for a school to have because it is much easier to teach children to respect each other at a young age than try to correct their behaviour later. As a teacher in your own classroom you can make it known from the first day that your classroom will be a bully free zone, and encourage your students to feel safe to come and talk to you if they are being bullied themselves, or if they see a classmate getting bullied.
