From teasing and name-calling, to shoving, making threats, and exclusion—bullying takes on many forms and occurs in different environments. Designed to support the National Sexuality Education Standards, the Take a Stand Against Bullying series uses real-life situations and engaging questions to shed light on an unfortunately timely topic. Readers will learn about different kinds of bullying, the reasons why kids bully, and how to take a stand against it. Series highlights include: • First-hand accounts and case studies present perspectives from all sides of the issue: the bullies, the bullied, and the bystanders • A quiz to determine if the reader engages in specific types of bullying behaviours • Discussion questions designed to encourage open and honest dialogue about bullying
