Workshop-Pesting is how you do it
Every day, many hundreds of children are bullied. Both in primary and secondary schools. Often, children have no idea of the impact of their behaviour. In many cases it is a nasty remark, a nasty growl or sometimes it is the body posture that hurts other children. The way something is said or done often hits hard. This workshop is specially designed to visualise this bullying and to show how it can be done differently. The class is divided into smaller groups. One child per group gets a camera. He or she films the other children in the group while they are given assignments. The assignments are positive or negative in nature. In this way, a role-play is created in which the behaviour of children among themselves is simulated. This role-play is recorded as best as possible. The film footage is edited by the pupils so that a positive and a negative film remain. In this way, children become more aware of how they interact with each other. Afterwards, they can reflect on each other's film.
