Sixteen-year-old Tristan just moved to a new high school. At his previous school, his hair and clothes looked just like everyone else’s fashion choices. At his new school, Tristan’s style stands out though.

Yesterday, they took his hat and walked through the hallways doing cruel imitations of him. Some other kids looked uncomfortable, but no one did anything to improve the situation. Though those bullying Tristan are the ones who are responsible for their actions, the people witnessing their behavior can do more than just watch and hope that the bullying stops.

Take the perspective of either Tristan or one of the bystanders. Think of at least three potential responses you could give to object to the bullying. These responses should follow school rules and should be appropriate. Describe each response, and identify the pros and cons of that response.
