Rudolph and Bullying

I have had a lot of bullying incidents occur in the 3rd and 4th grade.  I decided to do a lesson created by Danielle at School Counselor Blog, which by the way was my counselor bible my first year! I made this into a two part lesson.  To start, I scheduled a time with the teachers for all of the students to watch the video.  I had a showing for all 3rd grade, and one for all 4th grade.  I created a powerpoint of focus questions for each scene that I showed.  I had to watch Rudolph all the way through and determine the scenes of most importance.  I have included the scenes and times incase you want to show it.  There is a lot of bullying that takes place in the movie!

Here is the lesson plan with ASCA standards included:
