  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!)
A call home to parents should be done immediately and possibly even a face to face conference with the students bullying their parents and the student being bullied. In a classroom I was in if any student said something mean to another student they would have to call that students parents and tell them what they had said. This stopped that bullying issue immediately and hit the nail on the head as students are quick to be big and bad at school in the classroom but feel afraid when parents or adults are involved. Bullying Is not something to be taken lightly in anyway and this is an issue that needs to be fixed as soon as possible.
