Welcome students and introduce the lesson. Explain that today we’re going to explore what bullying and cyberbullying are, why they matter, and how we can stand up for ourselves and others.

Review each objective so students know the goals. Encourage them to listen for ways they can make a positive difference.

Define bullying in simple terms. Ask for student examples of someone being mean at school vs. online.

Show the [Feelings Emoji Cards](#feelings-emoji-cards). Ask: “How does it feel when someone teases or excludes you?” Record a few responses.

Guide students in pairs. Have them brainstorm signs of bullying in each category, then share with the class.

Explain role-play format: each group gets a scenario, one plays the target, one the bystander. Encourage calm language and asking for help.

Distribute the [Digital Citizenship Pledge](#digital-citizenship-pledge). Read each line together to build ownership.

Invite volunteers to share one commitment. Congratulate the class and remind them that small acts of kindness matter.
