What You Can Do
Worksheet Description
This worksheet on bullying is a constructive tool designed to empower individuals with strategies to address and prevent bullying. It features two main questions prompting introspection and planning. The first question asks, “What are some things you can do if you are being bullied?” This provides space for respondents to list actionable steps they can take when faced with bullying. This part of the worksheet encourages the identification of immediate responses to bullying, such as seeking help from a trusted adult or using assertive communication to stand up to the bully.
The second question delves into longer-term strategies with the prompt, “What are some things you can do to continue to stay safe?” This section is aimed at fostering proactive thinking about personal safety and wellbeing. Students are guided to consider and document ongoing strategies that can help maintain a safe environment, such as staying in groups, participating in awareness programs, or learning about digital safety. By addressing these questions, the worksheet helps students to not only react to bullying incidents but also to cultivate a sustained safety mindset, which is crucial in building resilience and promoting a supportive community.
