bullying when they were young. Bullying is a serious problem to such an extent that many children and teenagers are afraid to go to school. The main reasons for becoming a victim of bullying are appearance and social status. Bullies attack their victims physically and psychologically. Bullying can have terrible effects on its victims. Schoolwork may suffer, but also health. Research suggests that victims may suffer from mental health problems later in life such as depression, low self-esteem, and anxiety. This doesn’t have to be the case though. Many famous people have been bullied as a child and despite this experience have become very successful.

Bullies are a big problem in schools. Every week, many children are afraid to go to school. They are afraid they will be picked on by a bully. One study found that 52% of children reported being bullied at least once a week. Sixty percent say that they know someone who could harm them. Some children choose not to go to school at all so they can avoid the bullies. When they miss school, students fall behind their classmates.
A new program is helping put an end to this problem. The program is teaching children how to deal with bullies and helps them to feel safe in school. One school principal is working to end this negative behavior. Last year, he decided to let students know bullying is not allowed there. Students are now encouraged to report bullies and stand up for themselves. In this program, students work together to prevent violence. They give other students strategies on how to deal with bullies.
The principal says that the school has changed since he has addressed the bullying problem. But there are other steps parents can take to help their children with this problem. First, students and their parents should know the school's rules about bullying and what they should do if it happens. Second, children should be taught to stand up for themselves. Children should tell someone if they are being picked on since many children keep bullying a secret.
Last, but not least, parents should look for warning signs of bullying. These can include cuts and bruises, worrying, wanting to stay home from school, or a sudden drop in grades.

Traditional songs are repetitive and have a strong rhythm. They are readily learned by primary children and quickly become favorites because of their familiarity. They are fun and motivating for children. They allow language to be reinforced in a natural context, both with structures and vocabulary. All songs build confidence in young learners and even shy children will enjoy singing or acting out a song as part of a group or whole class. This also develops a sense of class identity. Many songs can help develop memory and concentration.
For the teacher, songs can be a wonderful starting point for a topic and can fit in well with topics, skills, and cross-curricular work. Songs are also particularly useful for developing pronunciation and acclimatizing young learners to the sounds of the language. At the primary school level, teachers generally tend to concentrate more on single-word items, while songs allow learners to learn about how sounds connect together. Traditional songs allow them to learn chunks or meaningful phrases of language rather than single words. Songs are also important for developing stress patterns and rhythm. Other songs are good for reinforcing structures and grammar. For example, the song ‘This is the Way We Brush Our Teeth' is excellent for practicing present tense and provides ample opportunity for acting out with gestures for each part of the daily routine.
