| DorieWitt -> Hi It's Brigitte |
| loonyhiker (aka Pat) -> Hi Dorie Witt! :) |
| PeggyG -> and now I know how to spell your name :-) |
| mattjmd -> this is very timely for me as our teachers talked to us about bullying just this morning! |
| PeggyG -> I'm really interested to hear if the same bullying advice works anywhere in the world :-) |
| AliceBarr (SEEDlings) -> Oh matt That's great! |
| AliceBarr (SEEDlings) -> What kinds of questions do your teachers want to know |
| mattjmd -> they wanted to know what we would do if someone we dont know well was bullied |
| AliceBarr (SEEDlings) -> Welcome McMackin |
| mattjmd -> being in a small school this was hard to imagine |
| AliceBarr (SEEDlings) -> WElcome Connie |
| mattjmd -> but they were wondering if we would talk to them, a teacher, or the bully |
| AliceBarr (SEEDlings) -> @Matt yes that's a great question |
| Connie Sitterley -> Hey eveyone |
| PeggyG -> http://twitter.com/#!/DorieWitt |

| PeggyG -> yes Trisha |
| PeggyG -> no headset needed |
| PeggyG -> just click on one of the icons under EdTechTalk A for audio |

| Sheila -> Hi all! |
| PeggyG -> Hi Sheila |
| AliceBarr (SEEDlings) -> Hi Sheila |
| Trisha -> Super TY! :) |
| AliceBarr (SEEDlings) -> Great point about MODELING |
| PeggyG -> Great Trisha! |
| PeggyG -> Have you seen Kevin Honeycutt's new children's book called "Don't Stay Under the Couch-Starbuck and the Bully" It's fantastic! |
| PeggyG -> http://web.me.com/khoneycuttessdack/kevinhoneycutt.org/Starbuck_Book.html |
| AliceBarr (SEEDlings) -> Haven't seen it but I can imagine it's great. Link? |
| PeggyG -> it has a companion curriculum guide too :-) |
| AliceBarr (SEEDlings) -> You're fast! |
| Connie Sitterley -> Kevin's work is always great |
| PeggyG -> I bought the book and the pictures of his dog Starbuck are wonderful and really help to tell the story |
| PeggyG -> I agree Bob!! nothing like hearing it from a peer! |
| AliceBarr (SEEDlings) -> :) |
| Connie Sitterley -> My past district participated in the Olweus program which is a quite structured program for k-12 http://www.clemson.edu/olweus/ |
| PeggyG -> do you like it Connie? |
| Connie Sitterley -> The Olweus works to develop peer support |
| PeggyG -> that was great advice from her mom |
| Trisha -> Sounds like you took ownership over the situation...powerful! |
| Connie Sitterley -> I believe that it has been quite effective-they rolled it out a couple schools at a time and were just going into the second set when I retired |
| AliceBarr (SEEDlings) -> @Connie: :ools like a good resource |
| AliceBarr (SEEDlings) -> Looks |
| PeggyG -> http://www.facebook.com/topic.php?uid=55178028049&topic=8554 Her facebook page for the survey "Have you ever felt this way?" |
| Connie Sitterley -> Great example of a supportive family-more kids need that support |
| PeggyG -> it sounds great Connie! |
| loonyhiker (aka Pat) -> Thx Connie! Clemson is near where I live too and wonder what other resources they have. |
| AliceBarr (SEEDlings) -> Yea Cheryl's here! |
| cheryloakes~seedlings -> hello, just back from parent conferences |
| PeggyG -> http://www.facebook.com/pages/Brigitte-Berman/55178028049?v=wall Brigitte's Facebook page. I'm a new fan!! |
| PeggyG -> Hi Cheryl! great to see you! |
| AliceBarr (SEEDlings) -> @Peggy me too! |
| cheryloakes~seedlings -> Hi Peggy, good to be here. |
| PeggyG -> http://www.totallynotably.com/Brigitte_Bermans_Blog/Brigitte_the_Bully_B... |
| PeggyG -> that's a very long link to her blog "What's Totally Notable Today?" |
| cheryloakes~seedlings -> There is no way we should accept, bullying as a right of passage. |
| mattjmd -> I have to go, great talk guys! love your work! |
| cheryloakes~seedlings -> We should stop that at all corners. |
| AliceBarr (SEEDlings) -> Bye matt |
| PeggyG -> I agree Cheryl! |
| AliceBarr (SEEDlings) -> I wonder how many teachers let it go |
| PeggyG -> who wouldn't want Brigitte supporting you?! |
| cheryloakes~seedlings -> A good survey question, Alice. |
| loonyhiker (aka Pat) -> I grew up being bullied so I can really feel for those kids who are bullied. |
| cheryloakes~seedlings -> Brigitte it is a huge issue for a school, not just a teacher/classroom issue. |
| PeggyG -> Kevin asks a great question in his book: Can Starbuck learn when he's scared? |
| cheryloakes~seedlings -> Alice, right, it is a culture of the building. |
| PeggyG -> being scared can totally interfere with your learning at school--that's why it needs to be stopped and not ignored |
| AliceBarr (SEEDlings) -> Culture and trust SO important |
| loonyhiker (aka Pat) -> i was actually bullied by a teacher as well as other kids |
| PeggyG -> good point loonyhiker! |
| cheryloakes~seedlings -> "As an adult, the best thing to do is be open and ready to listen." |
| Trisha -> Yes...culture is Key |
| loonyhiker (aka Pat) -> negative talk has become acceptable and standard rather than the opposite |
| PeggyG -> that is such a good point--kids tend to think of it as "normal" but it's not! |
| cheryloakes~seedlings -> Yes, Pat, it is acceptable in many places, not welcomed |
| AliceBarr (SEEDlings) -> @Pat good point.... so much negativity |
| Trisha -> I sometimes feel the lines can sometimes be Blurred between a Conflict (big or small) and Bullying...some days it may seem like an issue and the next day it may not. Any tips to identify? |
| PeggyG -> such a good perspective! |
| loonyhiker (aka Pat) -> by bringing this out in the open, we can begin to empower the kids who want to speak up |
| Connie Sitterley -> One good thing that came with the Olweus at our schools was that there were development of that culture and understanding of what bullying looks like and sounds like-in terms appropriate for the age groups |
| PeggyG -> that sounds like a very comprehensive program Connie! Was it expensive? |
| Trisha -> @Connie..yes *appropriate for age groups* is important... |
| Trisha -> as parent we hear a lot about it too @MS level... |
| Trisha -> YES! |
| Connie Sitterley -> I know that there was a grant involved but I wasn't involved with that part |
| PeggyG -> I heard it a lot in my elementary school--even very young kids bully because they see/hear it at home. They all need to be educated. |
| PeggyG -> that word "acccident" comes up a lot! :-) |
| cheryloakes~seedlings -> Yes, Peggy, or I didn't mean it, it was a joke. |
| PeggyG -> exactly |
| PeggyG -> they think they can't be held responsible if it was an accident and they said "sorry" |
| Trisha -> Same Group too it seems? |
| AliceBarr (SEEDlings) -> WE have ocnditioned them to say sorry, but they don't know what it really means |
| PeggyG -> right! really doesn't mean anything |
| Trisha -> Excellent Thanks so much :) Looking for those patterns...and restructuring. |
| PeggyG -> I love the videos I have seen created by students using the music from Peter, Paul and Mary for "Don't Laugh at Me"-powerful message |
| AliceBarr (SEEDlings) -> @Peggy I haven't seen those |
| loonyhiker (aka Pat) -> i haven't seen them either |
| PeggyG -> I've seen several. There is an entire curriculum guide that goes with it too. |
| PeggyG -> http://www.dontlaugh.org/curricula/index.php |
| PeggyG -> all free materials |
| cheryloakes~seedlings -> thanks Peggy |
| PeggyG -> that was an amazing story Brigitte!! |
| PeggyG -> you are so articulate and passionate about bully prevention!! |
| Trisha -> Yes...inspiring! |
| cheryloakes~seedlings -> http://www.pewinternet.org/Search.aspx?q=cyberbullying Latest research from Pew Internet |
| PeggyG -> I agree Cheryl! |
| Trisha -> Thanks for Dropping those Links In! |
| cheryloakes~seedlings -> sure, I love Pew Internet research. |
| PeggyG -> great ideas! |
| PeggyG -> sometimes you can have the older kids prepare stories or puppet plays for younger kids so they get the message as they share it with them |
| loonyhiker (aka Pat) -> I still feel the effects and I'm over 50 |
| PeggyG -> yes it stays with you forever! |
| loonyhiker (aka Pat) -> when I approach a group of my peers/professionals, my heart beats fast and I want to run (fight or flight response!) |
| AliceBarr (SEEDlings) -> Yes scars forever. |
| PeggyG -> her point about self-confidence is so important |
| Connie Sitterley -> there is an internet safety program http://isafe.org/ that deals with internet bullying-they use older students as mentors and have a program specifically to assist with that |
| PeggyG -> so true--you don't have to have all the answers but you just have to let them know you're willing to listen |
| cheryloakes~seedlings -> Pat, I am so glad you have worked through this, you are a powerful force in the cybersphere! I am so glad you believed in yourself? |
| loonyhiker (aka Pat) -> thanks cheryl but it doesn't come naturally - i really have to push myself but thx for the kind words! |
| loonyhiker (aka Pat) -> i felt the same way which is what steered me towards special ed |
| cheryloakes~seedlings -> Yes, I m all for the underdog, Pat. |
| PeggyG -> you have so much to share loonyhiker! I'm so glad you persevered! I would never have guessed that about you. |
| loonyhiker (aka Pat) -> i was the only Chinese in elem. and jr. high so was bullied because i was different |
| AliceBarr (SEEDlings) -> Me too loony hiker. You have so much to share! |
| PeggyG -> wish Sheila was still here to hear this about NASA! |
| AliceBarr (SEEDlings) -> This is so exciting! |
| cheryloakes~seedlings -> Peggy, she will hear the podcast, you know Shelia :-) |
| PeggyG -> of course!! |
| loonyhiker (aka Pat) -> i love hearing the enthusiasm in Brigit's voice! |
| PeggyG -> me too! that kind of excitement about learning definitely builds self confidence! |
| loonyhiker (aka Pat) -> She is such a great speaker - I bet she could sell ice cream to eskimos! |
| PeggyG -> I'll bet she could too! |
| Connie Sitterley -> What a great show-I need to share the podcast link with some of the teachers I work with |
| cheryloakes~seedlings -> Sure thing Connie! We have a bunch of them, over 100. |
| PeggyG -> she should definitely host her own show! |
| Connie Sitterley -> I know-I have been listening since Bob started! |
| cheryloakes~seedlings -> :-) |
