Teaching procedures:

I will be sure to go over the different concepts of how to stop bullying. I will remind students of
things that can be seen as bullying and that they should try not to do these things. I will inform
the students to do their best on the bumper stickers because they will be placed on a bulletin
board.
Guided & independent practice:
Students will be working independently on creating a bumper sticker that will give advice on
how to stick it to bullies. Students will be reminded of the ways they can help to prevent
bullying around them.
Closure:
I will make sure that every student completes a bumper sticker. The bumper stickers will need to
be school appropriate.

that will be willing to help the students.

None needed

I will show the students an example of a bumper sticker on the document camera.
Reflection on lesson:
The lesson went well. Students liked the ability to use their imagination to create
their bumper stickers. I was impressed with some of the bumper stickers the
students create. The artwork was wonderful and they seemed to take their time
and wanted them to look nice.
