Year 6 Choose Respect

Year 6 Choose Respect - November 2024

 For Anti-bullying week, Year 6 were lucky enough to take part in a live lesson taught by the BBC.

We helped Hacker to put on the ultimate sports day where we were taught how to play fair, work together, and show respect.

The interactive programme inspired us to handle disagreements constructively, without turning to bullying.

In section one, we discussed this year’s theme of Choose Respect. We then thought about how we feel when someone behaves disrespectfully towards us and noted down our feelings.

In section two, we learnt the definitions of ‘conflict’ and ‘bullying behaviour’. We explored the differences between an argument and bullying behaviour and had a discussion about how to stop conflicts developing into bullying.

In section three, we offered an analysis of Hacker’s mediation and provided a useful toolkit on how to deal with conflict. We then completed a motto using an acrostic poem with the title ‘RESPECT’. 

The poems will help children at South Grove remember how to deal with conflict respectfully.
