Question

One of Mr. Railey’s fifth graders, Caroline, has suddenly become very withdrawn everyday after recess. Mr. Railey suspects that Caroline is being bullied on the playground. When he asks Caroline about the situation, she denies that she is the victim of a bully. Mr. Railey is still not convinced. What is the best way for Mr. Railey to get more accurate information on the suspected bullying incidents

Answer 1

Explanation:

• If the fifth-grader came with that kind of behavior at once it is a sure sign that something is not right. If talking with the girl is not helpful, Mr. Railey could talk with some of her friends from the class or parents. It is also good if he follows the girl in the school to see how others are treating her.

The teacher must approach to his kids as a friend and someone who will understand the situation and talk, someone who other youngers can trust.
