*Bully Prevention Lesson in Fifth Grade Guidance Class
5th
grade students will have the opportunity to view an educational movie
entitled:“BROKEN TOY”. This 30 minute movie was shown to your child’s
class under the supervision of their school counselors. Following the
movie, students were given a chance to discuss the content of the
realistic and dramatic presentation.
The storyline evolves around
Raymond, a typical 12 year old student. He is subjected to verbal and
physical ridicule by his classmates. Raymond becomes the victim of
constant bullying by Mike, Troy, and their followers.
One day the
bullying and name-calling goes too far, an accident occurs, and the
bullies, in the face of tragedy, realize how serious their actions have
gone.
Please feel free to contact your child’s school counselor if
you would like more information regarding the content of this movie.
