This week we have been watching a film called How to Eat Fried Worms.
A boy called Billy has moved to another school and another house but he really didn’t want to move. The first day at school he meets a girl called Erica and a group of bullies. The bullies call “Billy Worm boy! Worm boy!” and Erica “Urk!”. Which is very mean. The bullies bully the new boy over time by staring at him, calling him names, pushing him when he walks past and putting worms in his lunch!
This movie has taught us about how bullies control other people by bullying others to be on their side. It has also taught us that bullies can force the victims to do things they don’t want to do, like eat worms… We have not seen all of the movie, the rest is yet to come… But we really hope this boy finds a way to speak up for himself, tell the teachers and put an end to this horrible bullying which is making him unhappy. We will let you know next week if he does.
