How to Deal with a Bully … well, it’s a start.
If you were a fly on my classroom wall you would see and hear me giving the following advice on how to deal with a bully.
… well, at least it’s a start.
Cheers,
Ally
Steps …
1. Act brave – do your best. Hold your head high. Ignore a bully.
2. Act as you always do – don’t appear sacred, unnerved, or upset.
Stay strong. Act as though a bully’s words/action don’t hurt you.
3. As best you can, stand up for yourself. Don’t shout, but use a strong voice.Tell the bully that you don’t like what he/she is doing.
4. Don’t bully back. Don’t try to win.
5. Walk away.
6. Keep your friends close – those who will stand up for you, and make you feel safe and secure.
7. When possible avoid a bully. Avoid places where bullying occurs.
8. Find someone you trust (a parent, friend, teacher, etc.) and tell him/her what’s going on.
A Fly on the Classroom Wall 
>I like all of the advice that you gave your students. These are very good words of wisdom. I worked in a pre-school classroom and when I caught a child bullying another child I would pull them aside, make the one who was doing the bullying say he/she was sorry about what they had done or said. I would then explain to the children that this was no way to treat each other and in our classroom we are all friends. I would also explain that we should treat others the way that we would want to be treated.
