Here are some important definitions that I found that might be helpful to discuss this month in your classrooms and ask your students first if they know what these words mean to them:
Teasing – name-calling, insulting, or other behavior that would hurt others feelings or make them feel bad about themselves.
Exclusion – starting rumors, telling others not to be friends with someone or other actions that would cause someone to be without friends.
Hitting (Physical Bullying) – pushing, slapping, grabbing, flicking, poking, pinching, tripping, or other violations of personal space.
Severe Hitting – punching, kicking, and similar behavior that could result in injury to others.
Stealing – taking or attempting to take the property of another.
Social Isolation – not allowing or discouraging students to participate in group activities, telling students that they do not have the skills to play a sport, not allowing students to sit with or join a group in class, recess or the cafeteria
