Fostering Friendships, Curbing Bullying.

Froschl, Merle; Gropper, Nancy

Educational Leadership, v56 n8 p72-75 May 1999

A study of two racially diverse urban schools revealed that boys are chief teasers and bulliers and that teachers seldom intervene. A proactive curricular approach that explores differences, examines the meaning of courage, involves students in rule making, and promotes friendships across ethnic and gender lines is suggested.
