Cliques in Schools

Who is your friendship group? Write down a list of friends' names. What do you have in common?

A circle of friendship may consist of people with a healthy common interest, but the group may be completely different. (Note: We recommend that you record the definitions of this group on bulletin boards or record sheets.) This group is a group of friends who often have the following characteristics.

Leaving the group is not flexible ("When she is with a girl, we can not make friends with her."

Does your school have factions? Please think about the various groups surrounding you everyday in the classroom. List the creek nicknames ("jocks", "preps", etc.) of the school community

Please share your list with your classmates and create a class list for your school. (Note: We recommend that you record this course list on bulletin boards or record sheets.)

So, what's wrong with the group? Factions are so unique that they may be truly limited. In "real society" and in post-secondary education life, it is necessary to communicate with people of various types, especially at universities and workplaces. Learning to speak with people from different factions can help you in the future. Furthermore, you can make new friends in the process.

Please see the class list. Every group has recorded at least one good thing. What can you learn from that group? How can I contact the group?

Now, let's return to your own group of friends. Please take some time to complete the creek survey yourself. Do you think you belong to that group?

(Note: Or, learn about the circle of students' friendship, pair intentionally pair students of different factions.)

Please set the anonymous box so that anyone can write a letter about the problem with Creek. Please have the teacher read the letter in the box once a week and share it with the class. Discuss the problem of each letter as a class to solve the problem

Start a unified faction campaign. Consider a composite day event using teaching tolerance

Ultimately, being a group makes it easier for you to go through high school, but it can also lead to many unpopular dramas. Because what is appropriate for high school students is very important, elementary school students are easy to feel sense of belonging. Factions have some influence on each student, so they are very influential in high school.

There are many reasons why high school factions were formed. The fear of living alone in high school is the main point that many students feel difficult to make friends. Factions were developed by the need for students to establish and accept their own identity. Students always seek their own identity, one way is to choose a group of students with the same identity. Teenagers like to explore and take risks. When forming factions, especially popular factions, they form a sense of power. Factions were formed for fellow love. They are safe when they are around the people they look up. There are various kinds of students in high school.

Through high school, groups participating have many disadvantages. For example, in a group, a student may commit a foolish mistake and fall down. People who participate in this group are more likely to become pregnant or take medicine at high school. Participating groups may be embarrassed among the less popular people. Due to unfavorable factors, participating groups will bring much benefit. Participating groups can learn that students become more comfortable around others. It also helps to improve the confidence of the students. Students participating in this group are more likely to not be selected by the whole high school. To know that there are lots of friends and knowing that someone is carrying you all the time is another advantage of entering the group. As many students need to know, this will help make high school easier.
