The Bully Free Classroom : Over 100 Tips and Strategies for Teachers K-8

Rate this book
You can create a peaceful, caring classroom that promotes a sense of belonging in all students and stops bullying in its tracks. This book shows you how. Allan Beane spells out over 100 prevention and intervention strategies you can start using immediately. Some are classroom-centered-designed to change everyone's attitudes, thinking, and behaviors. Some are victim-centered, focusing on students who are current or potential victims of bullying. Some are bully-centered, because bullies need help as much as victims. All are easy to understand and simple to implement; many require little or no advance preparation and few or no special materials. Positive and practical, reinforced with true stories and enhanced by reproducible forms, checklists, and resources, this solution-filled book can make your classroom a place where all students are free to learn without fear. Includes 34 reproducible handout masters. 176 pages, softcover, Otabind lay-flat binding, 8 1/2" x 11", educators, counselors, parents, youth workers, and before/after school program workers, grades k-8.

This is one of the best books I've read so far about Bullying. It is very practical for use in a classroom or at home. I love the fact that there are over 40 pages of forms/activity pages that I can copy/scan for classroom use. This book is probably best for elementary schools, but could be adapted for use in older grades. Not only does the book help with if bullying is already happening, but also helps create a classroom/school environment to prevent bullying from occurring in the first place. A great read for educators and parents.

The book is advertised for K-8, but it is far more for younger grades. A few activities would work in the middle school, but many kids wouldn't be able to take it seriously. Still, this is a good overview for any teacher wanting to understand causes and responses of bullying.
