The teaching guide contains a variety of interactive activities. Each activity has its own learning outcomes. Activities are organised into 4 Modules.

Module 1 — The Same but Different

Students explore roles, rights and responsibilities.

Module 2 — Hurting

Students identify features of bullying and how it makes people feel. They practise and promote zero-tolerance of bullying.

Module 3 — Put a Stop to Bullying

Students use positive strategies to deal with bullying and learn to ask for help.

Module 4 — A Cool Community

Students plan a bully-free community and consider the qualities that they would bring to this.

Parents and caregivers are encouraged to take part in classroom sessions and to help with home activities.
