With the explosion of the buzzword ""bullying"" over the past few decades, we seem no closer to solving the problem than when we first started. The real problem is that we still lack a true understanding of what bullying is...and is not.

Serving as a realistic guide for educators, parents, and coaches, ""Not Everything is Bullying"" provides clear and concise explanations as to what bullying is and is not. Practical suggestions for intervention will surely make ""Not Everything is Bullying"" a go-to guide in helping resolve bullying and conflict situations. A step-by-step investigation form sets this book apart from any other resource currently available. With a focus on the why, what, who, when, and where of bullying allegations, this form aides in forming the basis for logical resolutions. The first part of addressing any problem is understanding it; the second part is making a plan.

Covering both theory and practice, this book will teach educators everything they need to know about developing restorative practices in their education settings, in a way that is also trauma-informed. The first part of the book addresses the theory and philosophy of restorative approaches, and of trauma-informed and trauma-sensitive schools. The second part outlines the five restorative skills (mindfulness, honest expression, empathy, the art of asking questions and the art of requests), what they look like in practice (including using circles, respect agreements and restorative dialogue), and how to implement them. Every strategy is clearly explained and adapted to be appropriate for children and adults who have experienced trauma. Everything the book discusses has been especially designed to be adapted for different school settings and their particular challenges.

Can community-building begin in a classroom? The authors of this book believe that by applying restorative justice at school, we can build a healthier and more just society. With practical applications and models. Can an overworked teacher possibly turn an unruly incident with students into an "opportunity for learning, growth, and community-building"? If restorative justice has been able to salvage lives within the world of criminal behavior, why shouldn't its principles be applied in school classrooms and cafeterias? And if our children learn restorative practices early and daily, won't we be building a healthier, more just society? Two educators answer yes, yes, and yes in this new addition to The Little Books of Justice and Peacebuilding series. Amstutz and Mullet offer applications and models. "Discipline that restores is a process to make things as right as possible." This Little Book shows how to get there.
