Description

In this new cell phone bullying activity, students give advice to a friend who is the target of mean text messages.

Student Instructions

Cyberbullying is a growing problem, and many of us have at some point been a witness, a victim or a bully - and maybe even all three.

If a friend of yours was receiving bullying text messages, what advice would you give? Complete the comic below showing your avatar offering a realistic and helpful solution to the problem.

Be sure to pose your characters and use the eye and emotion controls to bring them to life. Add more rows to your comic and expand on the story, as needed. You can use the copy and paste buttons to save time designing new panels.

Teaching Tips
