The calendar should be displayed at the front of the classroom and for everyone to see.

Positive action prevents all types of bullying, physical, verbal, social, and cyberbullying. There are kits and curriculum for students grades pre-k all the way up to high school, with more than 1800 lessons. They offer group and individual activities in the bullying kits, where students learn the tools and vocabulary necessary to confront bullying in constructive and healthy ways, as well as specific strategies to defuse situations when an aggressor would typically bully another student.

The program has great structure. “The Thoughts-Actions-Feelings Circle (TAF) illustrates how this works in life: our thoughts lead to actions and those actions lead to feelings about ourselves which in turn lead to more thoughts.” When this cycle is negative, students do not want to learn. When this cycle is positive, students want to learn. The point of the program is to emphasize those actions that promote a healthy and positive cycle. The Positive Action program works through these concepts in a systematic way.
