This month being Anti-Bullying themed, my chapter leaders
and I got to lead our 5th-8t h grade Girl Talk Girls in a few exercises and
lessons that would help to capture the true meaning of what bullying is and it can be stopped. We chose the lesson “Gossiping” because even though this is not
physical bullying, words can hurt and will stay with you forever.
We opened the
meeting with donuts, tons of giggling girls, and blue nail polish! The girls
all made the pinky promise not be a bully and to stand up for others when they
see bullying happen. Afterwards, we split the group in half and discussed
the topic of gossiping and how words can hurt.
To there surprise, many of them
had gossiped about someone because they heard others gossiping about them.
In two weeks we will continue our bullying talk by signing the
bullying pledge and posting them in the middle school building! So proud of my
girls and my leaders and I love being a part of those amazing organization and
seeing it change so many lives.
