Tom Thelen’s “Be The Change” speech includes a clear explanation of National Bullying Definition from StopBullying.gov, including the 4 Types of Bullying, the difference between bullying and teasing, the difference between bullying and peer conflict, and an introduction to cyberbullying and online safety. Tom tells his own life story of overcoming bullying by getting help from a trusted adult and learning how to break out of the bullying cycle by making positive choices and building strong character. The challenge is for each student to “Be The Change” by being kind, celebrating our differences, and speaking up against bullying. (This program can be customized to be age-appropriate for any grade level.)
“Raising Resilient Kids & Teens” includes a brief review of what Tom Thelen teaches kids and teens in his school assembly programs. He goes on to unpack the tool of family dynamics explaining how every parent’s level of stress and anxiety has a direct effect on their children. The speech ends with practical steps for how to help kids (and teens) in crisis and a challenge to “be the trusted adult” in their life.
Tom Thelen’s Professional Development includes family psychology, childhood trauma, classroom management, and legal requirements for bullying prevention. Tom can also include a training on how to use the No Bullying Schools Software and the Mental Health 101 curriculum. A Professional Development Certificate with Learning Objectives is available for all attendees.
