Materials:
Powerpoint Presentation
Pencil/Paper
Pre-assessment and post-assessment surveys
Process Data:
This lesson plan will be conducted by a school counselor with the assistance of each
classs teacher in all 6th grade health classes or approximately 125 students at
Wyoming Valley Middle School. It will be conducted over one 40-minute class during
regular school hours. To reach all 6th grade students this lesson will be given to the
health class each 6th grader is required to take throughout the year, meaning that
one single lesson plan will be given to approximately 30 6 th grade students at a
time.
Perception Data:
A pre-assessment will be given to the students in the form of a survey that will be
passed out. The questions on the survey will ask what their idea of what bullying is,
making a list of different types of bullying that occur, the effects of bullying on a
victim, and why they think some people become bullies.
A post-assessment survey will be given to the students. Their understanding of
bullying, the forms it takes, why people bully, who are victims, and the effects of
bullying will tremendously increase.
Outcome Data:
90% of 6th graders can name the four types of bullying that occur.
90% of 6th graders can identify one way to appropriately confront a bully or bullying
situation.
There will be 10% decrease in the discipline referral rate due to bullying in the
remainder of the year after this lesson is taught. This data will be evaluated by
comparing the number of discipline referrals from before the bullying lessons were
received to the number of discipline referrals after the bullying lessons. This data
will be recorded and kept by the school counselor.
Follow Up:
I will let the students know this was the first lesson of 3 and what we will be
covering on bullying in the next lesson. When we resume the next days lesson I will
follow up by asking them questions about this lesson before starting our next one.
For students who are absent on the day of the lesson plan I will provide them a print
out of the power point we covered and encourage them to talk with a partner about
the lesson.
