N2  - "Resource book for preschool teachers that provides activities and techniques to prevent and address teasing and bullying in the classroom"--Provided by publisher; "In preschool, children have their first experiences of forming and joining social groups outside their families. It is natural for them to experiment with social interactions while learning about their world. Creating a caring environment at school reduces the possibility that children will assert themselves through negative behavior such as teasing and bullying. With The Anti-Bullying and Teasing Book, teachers of young children can address this behavior before it develops." "Teasing and bullying can affect a child's learning, physical health, and emotional well-being. The Anti-Bullying and Teasing Book uses activities, the classroom environment, and family involvement to develop empathy in children and create a climate of mutual respect in the classroom. With over 40 activities that focus on controlling teasing and bullying by cultivating friendship, community, and positive feelings, teachers of young children can create an environment in which all children feel safe, comfortable, and welcome."--BOOK JACKET
