  Case: Bullying in the classroom
During my internship, I have noticed that one student in my 4th grade classroom is getting picked on regularly. My CT has addressed this with the class multiple times but the bullying still continues. I have also stepped in and explained to the student that their comments say more about them then they do about him. He has tried ignoring them, sticking up for himself etc., but these kids are relentless! The administration has been contacted and these specific students have received consequences for their comments but no change has availed. What steps should be taken now?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I would show some current video clips or movies that they can relate to and maybe have someone come in, a good emotional speaker to relay to the class what they are doing is wrong. I would also separate the victim and the bullies in the classroom. I would also strip the bullies of any form of rewards.
