Movie night teaches about anti-bullying in a fun way

One school has come up with a wonderful way to get the message about bullying out to the students. Children tend to retain information better through fun activities and events. By using a family movie night in the school’s gymnasium, the teachers and organizers were able to bring awareness about bullying to the community while providing everyone with a fun night of entertainment.

The organizers of this movie night event included teachers and parents of the students who want to put an end to bullying in their school. In preparation for the big event, an inflatable movie screen was set up inside of the gymnasium. They even arranged a concession table to mimic a theater atmosphere. They offered pizza, chips, beverages, and other goodies to all those in attendance. They also set up a welcome table at the entrance of their venue.

As guest entered the room they had to pass this welcome table. This is where tickets for concession items were being sold. Organizers also set out anti-bullying petitions. Students were encouraged to sign it and stop bullying in their school. As an incentive, each child who signed received bonus tickets for the concession stand.

Once everyone had signed the petition and picked out their treats, it was time for movie night. Parents and students found places to sit while waiting for the family friendly Hollywood movie to begin. This is where organizers took another opportunity to bring awareness to the issue of bullying. Before the main feature, a slideshow accompanied by popular music was shown. It consisted of fun trivia intermixed with anti-bullying messages. Students received the information easily, as it was made more exciting than simply listening to yet another lecture on the issue.

Teachers, students, and parents were all able to relax and enjoy some wholesome entertainment together in the school gymnasium.
