Cyberbullying - Reaching Our Students

October is National Bullying Prevention Month.  While we send out emails with resources, I feel very strongly of the importance to teach our students more about cyberbullying.  The Internet takes bullying to the next level bringing unlimited number of people to the ridicule.  Common Sense Education has a plethora of resources on cyberbullying including a "Power of Words" video geared for 3rd-5th grade students but can be used with other grade levels explaining the impact words can have on others.  https://www.commonsense.org/education/lesson/the-power-of-words-3-5

Also, below is an infographic with just a few of the stats involved around cyberbullying.   Let me know if I can help stress the importance of being nice online with your students.
