Testimonial

"Your message fit perfectly with our character education program. The songs and themes were a wonderful extension to our lessons about diversity, courage, and peer-pressure. My seventh graders, who normally are not impressed with much, were glued to your every word. Your songs were the perfect lead to discussions that really made students reflect and think about their own personal code of ethics.”

- Elizabeth Lazzari, Teacher North Branford Intermediate School

Description

Cyd sings evocative songs about young peoples' experiences and engages students to talk honestly about how they treat each other – about friendship, popularity, status, and the pressures to fit in. Students then develop strategies for taking a stand for themselves and others to create a more safe and respectful school community.

Objectives

-Students will know and care about the impact of their words and behaviors on others and reflect on their responsibility to help classmates who are being treated badly.
-Students will be able to respond to questions about text (song) by sharing opinions, relevant personal experiences and values, as well as listen and respond to their peers.
-Students will be able to act as allies for themselves and classmates who are being targeted, using several different strategies.
