Bullying In Tinora High School By Karen Eubank

In addition to these standards, rights, and responsibilities, all teachers need to be consciously aware of possible problems dealing with students on an individual basis. In their mission of providing for the safety and welfare of all students, teachers can sometimes find themselves in situations that may be detrimental to themselves and their students. In practice, knowing how to avoid these situations is key. Dr. Troy Hutching’s presentation (Developing an Ethical Framework for Teacher Student Relationships: A Continuum of Responsibility, Nov. 1, 2011 Northern Arizona Univ.) was an eye opener. He provided the following startling facts: Shakeshaft (2004) reported 9.6% of grade 8-11

Most of us have a picture of what bullying is in our minds. It’s the big kid shoving over the smaller kids and looking down at them with their arms crossed, or taking their homework and lunch money. Our idea of bullying is very physical, and we ignore verbal abuse. When students find the courage to tell someone what’s going on, they’re usually told to ignore the hateful slurs and to ‘not let it get to them.’ It seems that the teachers and faculty of most schools forget that words

Altogether bullying is not nice and shouldn't happen in any schools, and we must put a stop to it.

According to the article “Tales of Bullying,” students can become a bad bully because you might have your own group of friends you want to impress or try to show off for, or you might have something going on at home. According to paragraph 3 in “Meet the New Sheriff” kids may get bullied because of their hair and/or what they wear. All around the wonderful world good kids are ending their own good lives over bullying. A bad bully is far worse than a lazy bystander because mean bully’s cause suicides, bullies cause/have low self-esteem, not to mention they suffer a large amount of punishment.

To expect greatness in any field of life, it all starts from a place of quality education and that's what America has constantly strived for. School is the place where everyone is given equal opportunity to learn and shape himself or herself into contributing members of society. At the same time each individual’s academic success defines what it means to have a good life. Unfortunately, schools face lots of problems trying to do the right thing. Among major challenges that schools face, bullying has a strong attribution to the poor academic experience among student victims. Today, students still risk being bullied everyday. This paper studies bullying in secondary school with

The Internet has become an ordinary thing in our lives. A large portion of the population are exceedingly comfortable using the Internet, as they sit behind their monitors in the security of their homes feeling immune to any sort of harm. The dreadful truth is there are various sorts of harassers online known as Cyberbullies, and they are usually much harder to spot than typical, offline bullies.

Moreover, behavioral and emotional differences intimidate many people. This study provided the many different definitions of bullying and is a great jumping point for teachers to understand the causes and effects of bullying, both in school and legally. However, the nine helpful recommendations fail to be truly applicable to a classroom and may even raise more questions than answers. Most would agree that policies that apply to schools are a state-level issue, as per our Constitution. However, if the available definitions of bullying are too broad and students do not report issues or teachers fail to advocate for victims or fail to be strong moral agents and correct issues as they see them then all the other recommendations in the article have substantial

I noticed that she did not encourage the students to do better; she would just tell them to re-look at their papers and fix their papers if they were wrong. If one of the students was misbehaving and distracting the rest of the class she would move their desk to an isolated corner. She did this to try and stop the student from being a distraction. Isolation helped the student and the rest of the class focus better. The teacher also used paralanguage as a way to communicate to the students to let them know that they are in trouble. Paralanguage are the sounds and intonations of language that convey meaning and emotion (Cormier & Jones, 2010, Chapter 4, Section 2). By raising her voice slightly lets the students know that she is serious. This technique of controlling the misbehaving students did not help like the isolation did. Some of the students would continue to talk and misbehave when she raised her voice to ask them to stop. Through my observation, I noticed that the isolation technique was a more helpful way to solve problems. Once the teacher saw the improvement in the behavior with the student, she would let them re-join the rest of the class. In the end, using the same helpful technique repeatedly showed her seriousness and improved the students

Apple Valley residents Chris and Amy Hernandez took the High Desert by storm when they released their first children’s book, Jack and the Zombie Attack. Not only that, but they garnered supporters from around the globe, and made a splash at the largest pop culture gathering in the world, the San Diego Comic Con. Now, the husband and wife team are once again turning to Kickstarter to turn their latest book, Jack and the Pirate Attack, into reality. This time, the book focuses on something near and dear to their hearts, bullying.

The case study, Survivors of School Bullying: A Collective Case Study was done to help explain different types of coping and defensive strategies students’ use, specifically junior high students within a school environment. The main researcher Octavio Ramirez recorded data taken by each individual student and then generated a list that summed their strategies as either preventive strategy or reactive strategy to bullying.

Many Americans do not realize what children in the middle and high school level go through on a daily basis while in school. According to the National Center for Educational Statistics, 2016 more than one out of every five students report being bullied at school. An intimidating physical threat at times involving aggression towards another, actions including hitting, pushing, punching, threatening, and teasing – bullying.

School administrators are well known for telling their students to say “No to bullying” but the question should be why they are not telling their students to say “Yes?” Every student would benefit in the case of bullying. Why should a student let someone bully them at school or online

Bullying is a big issue in the world these days. It is our job as teachers to address this issue in our classroom and teach children that bullying is not ok.

I was told more by my parents that the encounters I face in school, will help me to grow up to adulthood. Apparently everyone goes through it and its more like a rite of passage. However, bullying and harassment in schools has changed to the point where it presents these new dangers. I believe the evidence speaks for itself, harassment no matter harmless or not can present students and school staff with significant and far-reaching problems. In order to intervene, it is important to thoroughly assess the extent and nature of bullying within the school. Jadayah a student at Brick Avon Academy states “I have been verbally bullied more than once. I have been teased about my weight and called nasty names like portly.” She clearly recalls an incident in elementary school where she spoke up to a bigger girl at lunch and instead of completely resolving the issue it made the situation worst (Gallishaw, 2011). Bullying can take many forms either verbal or physical, all of which are usually threatening.

Schools say “no” to bullying, but why not say “yes”? Bullying is good for teachers, students, classes, and the world. Bullying can help everyone whether they are the bully or the victim. Everyone wins when it comes to bullying. There are so many reasons why instead of saying “Bullying is very bad,” schools should say, “You should bully (but not everyone) because some people need to get bullied.”
