Anti-bullying Week: Year 5’s Class Assembly on Peer Pressure

Leave a comment

Year 5 have been learning about peer pressure as part of Anti-bullying week. We started the week by learnig about the different types of bullying and discussed different ways to tackle bullying. We then explored peer pressure, what it means and how it can effect us. We thought of different was to tackle this and the importance of believing in ourselves rather than giving into what our friends say and do.

On Wednesday, we led the school assembly all about peer pressure. Thank you to the parents and carers who came to watch.

Anti-Bullying Week in Year 3

Leave a comment

During Anti-Bullying week, Year 3 have spent time finding out more about the different forms of bullying  by role playing different scenarios and thinking about the feelings of others.

Bullying is something that can hurt you on the inside or on the outside. It hurts you on the outside by hitting you and hurting you physically. It hurts you on the inside by name calling or hurting your feelings.

Bullying is done on purpose, it’s not an accident. If someone hurts you during a game by accident that is not bullying, but if every time you played a game they hurt you, or your feelings that would be bullying.

It can aim to hurt a group of people or just one person and can be done by a group or just one person. Bullying happens more than once. Nobody deserves to be bullied. EVER

After exploring different scenarios, Year 3 discussed what a good friend would do / should be like. Have a look at our ideas on display in our classroom.

This week we have spoken about kindness and feeling happy. We have also spoken about how we are all different but all needed to be treated fairly.

Here are some of the children’s views on kindness:
Salma – “I am kind because I share.”
Sedille – “I am kind because I help tidy up and I am good all the time.”
Aisha – “I am kind because I make friends with everyone.”
Mussie – “I am kind. I help. I tidy.”
Khadija – “I am kind because I play with everyone.”

Here are some of the children feeling happy!

Year 6 Anti Bullying week: Verbal,Visual, Racism and Homophobia

Leave a comment

This week we have been looking at the different types of bullying that can occur. We have also looked at  bullying  that happened during Victorian times.

The children were shocked to find out that children, in Victorian times, were made to face the wall and wear a ‘dunces’ just because they were slow learners or unable to keep up with their peers. This was seen as a form of verbal bullying.

Adheer could not believe that children could be humiliated in this way. He was also shocked to find out that children were physically bullied and made to do jobs they didn’t want to do.

We also looked at Homophobia and through discussion children understood that it was another form of bullying and unacceptable.

We  discussed that people have used graffiti and signs as a form of visual bullying through the years and this has also been seen as being  unacceptable.

Erica made reference to this by pointing out  the signs which were used by the Nazis during World War II.

The children now have a better understanding of bullying and that it can occur in different forms

St. Clement’s 1:1 Mentoring – Parent Voice

Just some feedback on the extra friendship sessions that were being conducted with my children.  I have found that this is really helped them in terms of social skills, how to develop and maintain a friendship properly in school time.  The activities completed in the session hake them think about how to behave and deal with situations and more importantly think before acting!

Thanks, Mum

*******************

My child has had mentoring sessions to cover how to interact with others both at home and in school.  They have helped with behaviour at home and interactions with her younger sibling. It has helped in school as well as in the classroom she is calmer, and allows the teacher time to deal with arising situations.

Mum

*******************

1:1 sessions have helped improve our child’s overall attitude towards others especially at home.  We are thankful for the time spent talking with her and giving her techniques that seem to be helping.

Shared ‘The jigsaw charter’ with the children to reinforce how we work together.
Calm me
At the beginning of every jigsaw lesson we help our minds calm down so that we are ready to learn.
Circle time with Jigsaw Jo in a circle. Jigsaw Jo is holding s feely bag (the bag contains: pebbles, sandpaper, play doh, pine cone and a plastic dinosaur toy). Asked a child to come and feel an object and asked them to describe it e.g smooth, rough, spiky, soft etc., and asked them to say whether they like the feel or not. Then I asked a few other children to do the same and asked them how it feels to the person holding it. Made the point that we may or may not like the feel of something and it is good to be able to say what we think.

Shared the picture cards with children: baby lying down, a baby crawling, a toddler walking, a five year old running, a ten year old skipping. In groups, I asked the children to place them in sequence. I reinforced the learning that as we physically grow we also do more things.
On Flipchart, I drew the stem and on centre of a flower. Added one petal and stick the first picture (baby) into it. Drew the second petal and asked the children which picture should go in next (baby crawling). Continued until the flower is complete, helping children to understand that every time we learn something new we add a little bit onto ourselves, like adding a petal to a flower.

Working in groups of four the children agreed on four changes they are looking forward to when they go to year 5. On their spinning top cube template, they wrote changes on the four sides of the cube. This was then cut out and made into a spinning top using a pencil as the spindle.
