Bullies and Bystanders

National Bullying Awareness Week

This week is national bullying awareness week. Listen to this quick audio clip from Bullying Awareness Week website.

Watch these Public Service Announcements about bullying. What do you think should happen to the bullies and the bystanders?

                Definition of bully.
                Definition of bystander.

Should just the bullies have consequences or should the bystanders have consequences too? If bystanders should have consequences, should they have the same consequences as the bullies or different?

What do you think? Talk to your family about their views on bullies and bystanders.

Cheers,
Mrs. Flasha

Hi Grade 4,

Should Halloween be celebrated in school? What do you think? Here are facts on the history of Halloween that I found on Wikipedia. Ask your family what they think about celebrating Halloween during class time.

Who should pay for a new arena in Edmonton?

Rexall Place

Proposed Arena

Listen to this article about the arena debate. What do you think? Should Mr. Katz pay for the arena or should the citizens of Edmonton pay for the arena? Do we even need a new arena? 

What do you think?

Cheers,
Mrs. Flasha
