Caring Chain to Stop Bullying
How do you stop bullying? These bright paper rings—looped into a chain—highlight kind and respectful ways to treat people. Even bullies want friends!
1. Emotional bullies use words and gestures to hurt others. Some bullies use physical force. Make this caring chain as a reminder of ways to avoid intimidation and how to make friends.
2. Design paper rings. Use Crayola® Scissors to cut wide strips of construction paper. With Crayola Markers and your imagination, decorate the borders of each strip.
3. Write phrases. In the center of each strip, write a way that people are kind to one another: "Take turns." "Use a gentle voice." "Speak up for yourself!" "Offer to help."
4. Create a caring chain. Glue ends of loops with a Crayola Glue Stick to create a paper chain. Where can you hang this friendship reminder to catch attention?
