Bullying - Pets and People (NEW! ) Gr. 7-9
In this interactive empathy building program, students learn about the connection between bulling and animal cruelty. Students soon warm up to discussing this difficult topic since we begin by focusing on animal welfare. By evaluating scenarios of abusive behavior in a group activity, students discover that views on abuse can vary substantially and that they have the power to create an atmosphere of acceptance in their school.
