As children move through elementary school, their peer relationships take on greater influence and they begin to congregate in areas where adults may not always be present (in the bathroom), or where they can be easily hidden from view (in the playground). The physical bullying that was common in the preschool years may turn more into social bullying and exclusion, which is harder for adults to see and often, harder for kids to talk about.
Bullying behaviour may include: name-calling, pushing, giggling or making faces when another child talks, excluding a child from a game, ignoring a child, tattling to get a child in trouble, using a child’s name as an insult, making a point not to sit or line up near a certain child, or writing negative messages on the internet.
This resource includes much more information on bullying; intervention, how parents can help, facts, solutions and much more.

"Le Passeport pour la Vie favorise la sensibilisation, l'évaluation, le développement et la promotion de la littératie physique chez les étudiants et les enseignants. Les quatre composantes de la littératie physique évaluées dans le Passeport pour la Vie sont la Participation active, les Compétences de vie, les Compétences de conditionnement physique et les Compétences motrices. Le Passeport pour la Vie combine les réponses des élèves à des questionnaires en ligne avec les données résultant de leur participation à des tâches de conditionnement physique et de compétences motrices que les enseignants administrent et observent.
Sur la base des résultats des évaluations de la littératie physique, le site Web du Passeport pour la Vie génère un passeport étudiant et un passeport de classe. Ces passeports mettent en évidence les lacunes dans les niveaux de littératie physique des élèves et aident les enseignants à adapter leur programmation et leur instruction pour fournir des leçons ciblées pertinentes tant au niveau de la classe qu'au niveau de l'élève. Les résultats du passeport sont conviviaux pour les enseignants, les parents et les étudiants, offrant à ces groupes cibles une plateforme pour engager des conversations significatives sur les résultats de l'évaluation de la littératie physique des élèves afin de soutenir les améliorations futures."

Passport for Life supports the awareness, assessment, development and advancement of physical
literacy among students and teachers. The four components of physical literacy that are assessed in
Passport for Life are Active Participation, Living Skills, Fitness Skills and Movement Skills. Passport for Life combines student responses to online questionnaires with student data resulting from
their participation in fitness and movement skill tasks that teachers administer and observe.
Based on the results of the physical literacy assessments, the Passport for Life website generates a
Student Passport and a Class Passport. These passports highlight gaps in students’ physical literacy
levels and support teachers in adapting their programming and instruction to provide targeted lessons
that are relevant at both the class and student- levels. The passport results are user-friendly for
teachers, parents and students and offer these target groups a platform to engage in meaningful
conversation about student physical literacy assessment outcomes to support future improvements.

Patient Problem Solving is a method of solving problems that you don't
already know how to solve. You are required to ask questions in order to
even start solving the problem. Sometimes those questions are asked of the
teacher, sometimes other students, and sometimes Google. For example,
students are asked to use a ticker tape timer to calculate their speed. First of
all students (and maybe you as the teacher) need to figure out what a ticker
tape timer does. There are a variety of ways to solve these problems, and
creativity will help them get to an answer.

Early in the year, have the students fill in the questionnaire and begin to think of activities they would enjoy participating in. This will help the teacher make decisions regarding class activities and individual time for students. Spend some time in a lab allowing students to find activities that will work on areas identified in their FITT plan (for example, if they want to improve their flexibility on the sit and reach by 10 cm, have them research exercises that increase flexibility). Students will add these exercises to their portfolio. Allow students time to work on their FITT plans during designated times throughout the year. Students can track results through FItstats fitness tests performed 5 times per year.

In order to feel good about ourselves, we need to pay attention to the 5 different areas of our life that bring us wellness.
1. Spiritual- How do I fit in this world? What is my purpose in life? What things can I do to feel happy? What can I appreciate?
2. Physical- What physical activity did I do today? Did I eat healthy?
3. Emotional- What feelings did I have today? If I had negative feelings today, how can I change them to positive feeling
4. Intellectual- What is something I learned today? What did I discover that was new?
5. Social- Did I talk with anyone today? Did I spend time with a pet today? Did I get connected to others face to face today?
"Teachers can now create a custom passage, on any topic, with (5) corresponding questions and answer keys (of course).
This will allow you to align your lessons closely to the curriculum, build literacy across subject areas, and save time!
Although technology is remarkable, it takes the wisdom of an educator like you to truly breathe life into lessons. So be sure to add your human touch!"
