counselor can provide the scenario.

the lesson corresponds to any of the letters. Ask: Was it helpful? Which would
you be comfortable using in the future?

1. The counselor will ask students if they believe they are prepared to
respond appropriately to a name-calling or bullying situation.
2. The counselor will gauge students interest in the group throughout the
session. The counselor will also listen to what members are saying to
determine if the lesson helped them and if it was interesting to them.
Students will be encouraged to think about differences and how it feels to be put
down or called a name for being different in hopes of encouraging them to not
name call or put down others. Students will also think about ways to stay SAFE if
they are in a name-calling or bullying situation.
