Friendship and Other Weapons
Friendship and Other Weapons : Group Activities to Help Young Girls Aged 5-11 to Cope with Bullying
Long before most school programs begin anti-bullying campaigns, young girls are getting a full education in social aggression. Girls as young as age five are experiencing acts of bullying, disguised as friendship, that shake the carefully laid foundations of their self-image, personal values, and beliefs about peer relationships.
Based on thought-provoking discussions, engaging games, strength-discovering exercises, and confidence-boosting fun, the hands-on activities in Friendship and Other Weapons build critical knowledge and friendship survival skills such as:
* Recognizing the Red Flags of Girl Bullying
* Responding Assertively to Bullying Behavior
* Realizing Personal Strengths
* Becoming an Ally to Others Facing Bullying
* Resolving Conflicts Directly
* Using Technology and Social Media Ethically
This photocopiable resource book provides educators, social workers and counsellors with a complete, ready-to-use group curriculum to help young girls aged 5-11 build constructive and fulfilling friendships.
