Bystander Responsibility Worksheet
In one of my 5th grade classrooms, the teacher and I noticed that the students were having a difficult time focusing during my bullying prevention lessons. After school one day, I asked the teacher if she had any recommendations for getting the students to be more engaged in the lessons. She recommended that I create a worksheet for the lessons so that students could follow along as I teach. The worksheet was such a success that I continued creating them for all of my future lessons with that class.

Supplemental Classroom Guidance and Support Group Survey
After teaching the required classroom guidance lessons, I realized that I had additional time to either teach more lessons and/or run additional support groups depending on the wants and needs of the teachers. So I created a needs assessment using Google Forms and sent it out via email. The responses were extremely helpful in allowing me to customize my interventions and direct me to where my effort would be most useful.

El Programa Hispano
El Programa Hispano is a school based program offered through Catholic Charities which provides mentoring, skill building, tutoring, academic support, advocacy, family engagement and recreation to Latino students. At my middle school we have a large Spanish speaking Latino population, so this program has been extremely helpful for students and families who are wanting extra support and would prefer to work with someone from their cultural background.
