1. Tell a grown-up you can trust!

2. Don't give the bully a chance: *avoid contact, change seats, or go home another way

3. Stand tall &amp; show confidence by saying 'NO!' or 'STOP IT!' 4. Ignore their words and don't give them satisfaction!

5. Don't show your feelings and keep your mind occupied until you're out of the situation!

Last week he tripped me and took all my stuff All the kids laughed at me and said "you ain't tough"!

Today he demanded my money or things would get bad When I got to school I felt angry, upset, and sad!
