I was struck by this simple cartoon by lunarbaboon.com that illustrated, what I call "positivity." Something I think we need more of in schools and maybe too the broader world.
A possible lesson could exploring bullying, and potential solutions. Start with some reflective writing:
Once I was bullied for _______.
I felt __________.
I wish more people would _______.
After sharing, explore possible ideas for a poster, cartoon, or drawing that promotes and illustrates the positive things we can do. Anti-bullying posters are everywhere, but there are fewer examples of "positivity."
Instead of focusing on what not to do, try illustrating how we can all be more uplifting to others. Maybe it will catch on.
