Social Emotional Learning
Second Step Lesson Focus:
To further help our school be a safe and respectful place, we have been using the Second Step Bullying Prevention Unit to coincide with National Bullying Prevention Month this October. In these lessons, your child has been learning specific skills to help stop bullying. Students understand how to:
• Recognize when bullying is happening
• Report bullying to a caring adult
• Refuse to let bullying happen to themselves or others
• Be a bystander who stands up and is part of the solution to bullying
