In every school across the United States, at least one child is being bullied, or we have heard of it at least. At times, teachers, parents, or children witness bullies at their school. Usually, the students attention is called in, and the student is reprimanded. This does not stop the behavior though. As educators and parents, its important to look into what is causing childrens or students behaviors. Once we tap into the problem, we could work on changing the behavior. No one likes to be bullied, but it happens. These bullies are the ones that we would love to stomp flat as an ant. Reality sets in, and you cant do it out of fear. Fear is the evil of silence, which only gives the bully more ammunition to carry on with their bulling. Encourage students to analyze the cause of bullying, and let me come up with a solution to stop it. Empower students, and they shall deliver. Jose and Hector are best friends who fear another student named Rafael. There is not a day of the week that goes by that Rafael doesnt get into trouble. Rafael is the bully of the school and doesnt care what consequences he is given. A group of friends is tired of his bullying and wants to do something about it. They seek advice from one of their teachers, who gets them to thinking about Rafaels behavior. They find that there are underlying reasons why Rafael behaves the way he does. They make a plan to help him stop being a bully.

Departing from an essentialist concept of the self, this highly original volume advances the cross-cultural study of selfhood with three contributions to the literature: First, it approaches the self as an ideological process, arguing that selfhood is culturally situated and emergent in social practices of persuasion. Second, it demonstrates how postmodernity problematizes the experience and concept of the self. Finally, the book challenges the pervasive practice of equating an individuated self with the Western world and a relational self with the non-Western world. Contributions cover a broad range of topics—from the development of the eccentric self to the ritual circumcision of Jewish males.

The chapters focus on key chronological periods (e.g., the Age of Exploration to the Civil Rights era) and follow the scope and sequence of major social studies textbooks, with activities linked to the U.S. History Content Standards and the Common Core State Standards for Literacy in History/Social Studies. The three lesson plans in each chapter begin with an essential question that sets the focus for the primary sources and teaching strategies that follow. The lesson plans include differing types of primary sources such as photographs, speeches, political cartoons, historic maps, paintings, letters, and diary entries. Grades 5-8
