Covid-19 pandemic period has affected human being
in many aspects. If we look the process from educational perspective, we can
find more challenges at the schools with the transition to face to face
education than before. Since students stayed away from school culture during
the distance education, we have seen unwanted behaviours among students more
often than before. Peer bullying is one of the unwanted problems that we have
observed at school. Peer bullying can be defined as “repetitive exposure of a
student’s negative effects of another student or students.” This deliberate
disturbance can happen physically ( impellent), verbally (get a nickname,
intimidation) and emotionally (exclusion). This project aims to raise awareness
the harmful effects of bullying among students. In addition, it is aimed to
develop students’ language and communication skills in English via role plays,
creating slogans and posters.
