2AB STUDENTS ANTI- BULLYING DAY / TASKS FOR MAY 4th

Monday, 4th #Maytheforcebewithyou 😉

Dear students,

Here we are again! I hope you had a great weekend, now it is time for some English. Please read this text and do the activities. 💪

May 2nd, is World Bullying Day. It took place last Saturday but I have prepared an activity for you to do today.

World Bullying Day is an international day marked on May 2nd to raise awareness of bullying and cyberbullying. It’s a widespread issue that affects millions of students around the world in schools with consequences that range from psychological traumas to even suicide and causes around 200 deaths each year.

Cyberbullying comes in a whole range of different shapes and sizes and is something that is totally subjective to the person being cyberbullied.Some experts report that 7 in 10 young people experience cyberbullying before the age of 18.

Cyberbullying is the use of digital technologies with an intent to offend, humiliate, threaten, harass or abuse somebody.

In the last few weeks we have been teaching and learning online, occasionally we have to share files with your images or projects, I upload them to a private drive with access just for you, I have to say that some of you are not happy sharing files with each other, some of you won't even send me these projects, do you know why? because they are afraid that their classmates can use their pictures or projects to offend, humiliate or make fun of them. Please report any of these bullying behaviours to your teacher, those students that humiliate their classmates will be reported to their families and school authorities, they won't have access to my drive and will receive proper consequences.

Now, please have a look at this video from the  CAM (Madrid government) for all Madrid students.
