Description

In this Stop Bullying activity, students imagine that they're the bully, and show how they would react upon seeing the effects of their actions on another student.

Student Instructions

Verbal bullying means using words to intentionally cause harm to another person, and includes name-calling, ridicule and teasing.

Read the first panel of this comic and imagine that YOU are the one doing the bullying. How do you feel when you realize you're hurting another person's feelings? Hit the Start Activity button and show what you would do to improve this situation.

Be sure to pose your characters, and use the eye and emotion controls to bring them to life. Use the copy and paste buttons to quickly create new panels. Finally, add more rows to your comic and expand on the story, as needed.

Teaching Tips

Students will be able to design their personal avatars once they start this activity, and it will appear inside the template comic automatically.
