Empower Bystanders with an Anti-Bullying Assembly
Empowers bystanders by teaching them that their actions can significantly influence bullying situations[4]. Anti-Bullying Speaker Jim Jordan strategies include:
– Empower bystanders to support each other and actively stand up against bullying, rather than remaining passive observers[3][4].
– Teaching students to safely intervene when they witness bullying, such as speaking up if they feel safe, or helping the targeted student get away from the situation[4].
– Promoting the importance of reporting bullying to trusted adults and supporting the victim privately, offering reassurance and encouraging them to seek help[4].
– Using interactive activities and real-life scenarios to help students practice moving from being silent bystanders to active allies, fostering a culture where everyone feels responsible for stopping bullying[2][4].
These approaches help students understand their power to make a positive difference and create safer school environments.
