Anti-bullying day is next week. So, it's time to "think pink".
I prefer to think pro-actively and support kindness, caring and acceptance rather than teach the symptoms of bullying.
Noah and the Whale's song Give a Little Love works perfectly for that.
ps Without the help of our students teachers (who basically took over the classes for the morning) we could not have filmed our video. Thanks ladies.

We watched it. A few times.
Then we made our own video with our big buddies.
Their teacher roughed out the story line, a dad who is a professional videographer volunteered his expertise, and we were ready for filming.
The premiere showing is this Wednesday at the school's Anti-bullying Assembly. The video is under wraps until them.
The kids were awesome.
And they are pretty excited about being in a video.
I hope that they remember - have written into their lives - that kindness begets kindness.
To "give a little love".

The blogging community is a great source of learning. I have learned SO much and come across so many wonderful ideas that I never would have seen if I was not part of an online community. You have been a big part of my learning, Barb.

DeleteLove your idea! You are so inspiring. Don't you love those student teachers!!!! Liz
ReplyDeleteWe need to get together in real life sometime - we keep having one degree of separation! It is wonderful having a student teacher - an extra set of eyes and hands in the classroom. Do you have a student teacher this year?

It was a lot of fun to work together with a colleague to put our video together. Collaboration is fun! I figure I am lucky to have my little ones.

Making the video went a lot smoother than we thought. It did help that we had 2 student teachers who were basically left holding the fort while we facilitated the videoing - and we had a professional videographer. It was fun. Give it a go!
