Case: Whispers
On Mrs. Linds class a group of students were caught whispering negative and derogatory things about a new student. The group pf students was confronted by they neglected doing so. Mrs. Linds was convinced of what she heard. Another student who sits nearby overheard the whispers and told Mrs. Linds but also expressed being scared to confess in front of them because of possible bullying.
What could Mrs. Linds do in this case?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
The first thing I would do is figure out who the Ringleader of the group is. Typically, in these situations there are a few negative people and others are following the behavior to be "cool" and to feel accepted. I would talk to the few persons that I believe are speaking negative and derogatory things about one of my students individually. First, I would warn about the behavior and ask for it not to continue and let them know the consequences if it does. If there behavior persists, I would start with a consequence that was focused on compassion or anti-bullying, more than likely a paper depending on the age. Most schools have an anti-bullying policy so there is a very good chance the administration would have some particular rules that I could follow as well. |

Comments: I agree with this solution. There is typically one ring leader in a group and the others follow to "be cool" or to be "accepted" as you stated and if you can identify and change the actions of the ring leader it will be easier to change the actions of the rest. Also, you are correct, all schools do or should have an anti-bullying policy, which should have consequences already setup. I would also recommend that the teacher documents all incidents and conversations with those students to show that this is an on going issue for when administration and parents are involved. |

Comments: I agree that it is beneficial to consult school and county guidelines before taking specific action, as well as meeting with administration about the behavior. That said, this behavior must be stopped immediately before it continues any further, so absolutely confront the party that is perpetuating this bullying first hand, though in private, and explain the severity and consequences of their actions. |

Comments: Talking with each of the suspected students who are involved in the bullying individually is important. By doing this, Mrs. Linds would be able to get the truth since she is talking with each student privately. It is important that each of the students involved receive a warning and are told about the consequence that will take place if they continue to bully the student. |

Comments: I think this is a good idea because usually the "ringleader" of the group is bossing and leading the other kids around and they may not know better because they just want to "fit in" or "be cool" |
