Cliques?
These four segments in this program identify, through real-life examples, the meaning and effects, both good and bad, of cliques.
Cliques? It Feels Good to Belong - Finding their place in a particular social group is a primary concern of many children. Cliques are groups of friends, but not all groups of friends are cliques. Cliques may be formed in elementary school or in middle school. Sometimes cliques are made of kids who share a common interest and other times the kids in them want to be popular or want to belong.
Cliques? Good or Bad - Cliques can have both positive and negative effects on individuals and groups, too. This program explores how cliques can affect a student and an entire school.
Cliques? Excluding Others - This program shows that cliques leave some kids out on purpose and kids may act much differently than they did before they were part of the clique.
Cliques? One or More is Okay - Some students have diverse interests. In this segment, kids will come to understand that it's okay to have two different sets of friends to hang out with.
The pertinent scenarios in this program should be appealing to both male and female students. The discussion questions that are provided are thought-provoking and should foster good discussions.

Raven and Chief Big Sky negotiate to bring the women back, make everyone happier and strengthen the community. This is a humorous and inspiring video in which a young girl takes responsibility to do something about a problem in her community. Gender equity is treated in a clear and balanced manner.

Don't Stand By
Witnesses to bullying are just as guilty as the bullies themselves. Using the video-diary format, viewers follow four young students who witness bullying and do something about it. Students see four ways a bystander can stand up to a bully: stop a bully together, talk to the bully, be a friend and tell an adult. Because bystanders are clearly a part of the bullying problem, these peer intervention strategies can dramatically decrease the incidence of bullying.
