Magen David Yeshivah<br />

There was once a boy named Jim.<br />

He was new to our class. Everyone<br />

made fun of him by the way<br />

he dressed. Jim wore<br />

collars other kids<br />

didn’t. They would<br />

always call him four<br />

eyes because he had<br />

glasses. Another kid,<br />

Larry, used to be bullied<br />

like that. Larry<br />

said to Jim, “I used<br />

to be bullied like that.<br />

But you shouldn’t let<br />

them do that. Stand<br />

up for yourself. Say, I<br />

am not scared. Maybe<br />

I am new and don’t<br />

wear your kind of<br />

clothes. That’s who<br />

I am. Back off.” Jim said, “Thank<br />

you” and went to the bullies and said<br />

exactly what Larry told him to. The<br />

bullies backed off and didn’t bother<br />

him again. Vote: 1 2 3 4 5<br />

Magen David Yeshivah<br />

A new kid was in class today. She<br />

seemed different. Everyone was<br />

talking about her and she looked shy<br />

and worried. At lunch time, Rachel<br />

Treat others<br />

the way you<br />

want to be<br />

treated<br />

went over to the new girl and started<br />

talking to her. She had an English<br />

accent and people at the other table<br />

were laughing. Rachel went over to<br />

them because they happened to be<br />

her friends. She stood up for this girl<br />

and told them how they were obnoxious.<br />

Being different<br />

By: Helen Menashe<br />

Magen David Yeshivah<br />

One day, someone was commenting<br />

how her shirt looked ugly and childish.<br />

She sat quietly like she simply<br />

didn’t care. I saw that she was upset.<br />

So, I got up and<br />

asked the “Bully”<br />

if I could<br />

talk to her quietly.<br />

She agreed<br />

and I told her<br />

she was hurting<br />

this girl’s<br />

feelings. She<br />

honestly didn’t<br />

realize and felt<br />

so bad. She said<br />

she was only<br />

doing it as a<br />

joke; she ran<br />

to my friend,<br />

gave her a hug<br />

and apologized.<br />

That “Bully” never made fun of anyone<br />

ever again. Vote: 1 2 3 4 5<br />

Magen David Yeshivah<br />

One day, a boy went to school and<br />

he got braces. He looked very ugly<br />

in braces. Everyone laughed at him.<br />

There was a boy who said, “Everyone,<br />

he is the first person to get braces.<br />

I think that is so cool!” Everyone<br />

agreed and no one made fun of him<br />

anymore. Vote: 1 2 3 4 5<br />
