Act Now! 7th Grade

Act Now! logoIn this engaging and interactive course, seventh grade students learn how to make positive, long-lasting choices about bullying. Through virtual conversations with characters, educational videos and lessons, students get the chance to role play situations related to bullying, making choices that will impact their interactions with other characters. They spend time at a fictitious middle school, where they meet a cast of characters whose lives have been affected by bullying. At this grade level, strategies for dealing with cyberbullying and sexual harassment are also presented. As students make choices along the way, their opinions and actions will help them develop a bullying prevention campaign for improving their school’s overall climate.

Delivery Method

In this self-directed course, the delivery method is blended, utilizing a combination of online lessons and activities, and offline classroom activities.
