Tough Kid Bully Blocker
Make your school bully-free!
To block bullying at our school, we need to recognize bullying and learn what to do to prevent it.
What is bullying?
· Bullying is one-sided. That means it only gets one way.
Teasing back and forth is not bullying. Two-sided arguments are not bullying.
Bullying goes one way.
· Bullying is intentional. That means it’s on purpose.
Accidentally hurting someone is not bullying. Bullying is on purpose.
· Bullying is repeated. That means they’ll do it over and over again.
· Remember: bullying goes one way, it’s on purpose and it’s repeated.
· Bullying is hurtful and can make you or someone else very, very sad.
How are people bullied?
The bully might use his body or hands to hurt someone.
· Bullying can be verbal.
The bully might use mean words, ridicule or spread rumors about someone.
· Bullying can also happen when someone is left out or excluded on purpose, or when someone tries to damage friendships.
When a bully or bullies use friendships to hurt someone, that is called relationship bullying.
Who is a bully?
· A bully can be a boy or a girl, or even a group of kids.
· Some kids watch other kids get bullied, or even laugh when someone is bullied.
· A bully can be a boy or a girl, or even a group of kids.
· Some kids watch other kids get bullied, or even laugh when someone is bullied.
To have a safe and bully-free school, we all must remember and use the bully blocker pledge.
· I agree not to bully other students.
· I will help students who are bullied by speaking out, and getting adult help.
· I will include students who are left out.
Remember: bullying is on purpose and hurts othe people. No one likes to be bullied.
Let’s all say the pledge.

Safe Web Surfing: Top Tips for Kids and Teens Online
Top 4 things you absolutely need to know about Internet safety:
1. The Internet is forever. Anything you put on the Internet will be there for a long time. So, what to do? Start by googling your name, your phone number, your address, just to find out what’s really online. If you are on social media, use the strictest privacy settings.
2. Don’t put personal information online. If you do, it leaves you open for attacks fron either cyberbullies or just someone who wants to take advantage of you. Ask a friend what private information thay can see on your sites. If you’re not happy with the answer, remove it.
3. Don’t forget about smartphone safety. Don’t accept phone calls or texts from strangers. Only answer tests and phone calls from your contact list.
4. Handle hacking intelligently. No matter how careful you are, your account may get hacked. There are a few important things to do when you get hacked to ensure your safety:
· Change your password, and make the new one secure. Check if your email service provide a 2-step verification.
· Check your sent-box and let any affected people know that you were spammed, especially if your account sent out a phishing link.
· Do a sweep of your computer with antivirus software. Odds are not only did you send something nasty to your friends - you might have something nasty in your hard drive!
· Backup your files. If there’s a virus your computer doesn’t catch, you don’t want to lose everything. Invest in a cheap portable drive and keep it somewhere safe.

How to beat cyberbullies
1. Privacy is prevention. Take a second to go through any place you store data about yourself online and make sure the privacy settings are air tight.
Make sure your Facebook settings don’t give out your email address or phone number.
2. When bullied, don’t respond and don’t retailate. Retaliating to a cyberbully just encourages the bully because you’re giving him what he wants.
3. Block the bully if possible. What’s better than ignoring a bully? Making it impossible for him to contact you! Try the following methods to make it harder for your bully to reach you:
· if you’re on a messaging system, set it up so that only contacts on your buddy list can contact you – if this doesn’t work, try going invisible or blocking the individual screen names that you know to be dangerous.
· Screen all incoming phone calls and text messages. If necessary, temporarily suspend your social media pages.
4. Save the information and tell someone. First and foremost, report the bullying to the service provider, because cyberbullying is outlawed on most sites and messenger services and it is illegal in most states – bullies might think nobody knows who they are, but they leave an electronic trail.

Save any threatening correspondence, email, Facebook, phones, etc, and show it to somebody you trust. This could be a parent, teacher or friend.
