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.

Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
At the beginning of the year, the teacher should set clear expectations of their students. The classroom is a positive and safe place for them. They should know that only encouraging words should be said to one another. Because this issue is happening, the teacher can talk to the students and make sure they know that their behavior is not appropriate or tolerated. Explain that they have to be uplifting to one another.
