Stand by me: The effects of peer and teacher support in mitigating the impact of bullying on quality of life. Psychology in the Schools, 46(7), 636-649. This article reinforces the important role of the teacher in helping to mitigate the effects of bullying on elementary and middle school age students. The study shows that students who felt supported by their teachers and peers, even while experiencing a bullying situation, reported having a better "quality of life" than those who did not feel supported in that way.

Lesson Plan Ideas
  • http://www.safeschoolscoalition.org/rg-lessonplans.html  Lesson plans for K-12 teachers are broken down by elementary, middle, and high school levels. Each topic offers multiple lesson plans within that series. Some examples are gender roles and relationships, developing empathy, hate crimes, no name-calling, sexual orientation, and discrimination. 
Quizzes and Surveys 
      
Both of these surveys would be a great tool to start the conversation about bullying both in individual classrooms and school-wide. They are also a good way for teachers to assess what students know about bullying and how to properly address it. 
Tips: What You Should Know 
  
This is a great list for students and parents to start the conversation about bullying at home. It gives students a basic framework for how to handle different bullying situations, and allows parents to have a basis for helping their student if he or she is being bullied, experiencing bullying as a bystander, or is in fact being the bully themselves.
    
       
This list is similar to the one given to students and parents, but is addressed directly to teachers. This allows teachers to have a place to start if they see bullying taking place in their classroom or school. This is also a good place for teachers to start if they are attempting to implement an anti-bullying program in their class or school. 

Anti-Bullying Pledges 

The above four pledges are specific to students, parents, and school faculty members. Schools and families can use these pledges to hold their teachers, students, and children accountable for not bullying other kids and reporting all bullying activities to a trusted adult. These documents are an excellent way to end discussions about bullying—taking action!
