It was a warm and sunny day on August 24, 2013 in New Castle,
PA. There were three children that all went to school together, and
they were best friends.

saw Honey Bun Glaze getting bullied. Honey Bun Glaze was always
bullied by the Castle Hawk basketball team.

Slide 8
The Castle Hawk basketball team didnt know that Honey Bun Glaze
had the coolest friends in the school. They were Dominique, Tre and
Aleigha. So his friends went to the principal and teachers and told
them that the bullying had to stop before it got out of
control.

Slide 10
There was a problem. The boys were on the schools basketball
team, and the team had won the state tournament. The principal and
teachers thought, Those boys ran so fast. They could outrun a
cheetah. The principal and the teachers wouldnt do a thing because
they were the best of the best on the team.

Slide 12
One day Aleigha, Dominique and Tre were walking down the halls,
and they saw Honey Bun Glaze getting bullied. They decided to take
matters into their own hands. All the friends told Honey Bun Glaze,
Go to class, and we will take care of this.

Slide 14
So, Aleigha, Dominique and Courtney went up to the basketball
players, Hey! You do know that Honey Bun Glaze has a disability,
right? The boys responded, We dont care. What do you think you are
going to do about it? The team started laughing. HA! HA! HA!
Slide 15
Slide 16
Then, Dominique and Tre both said at the same time, What do you
think youre accomplishing by making fun of someone with a
disability. Youre a team, and youre the best of the best in the
school. You call yourselves role models?
Slide 17
Slide 18
So while they were all in the hallway, Dominique, Tre and
Aleigha all showed the Castle Hawk basketball team how it felt to
be bullied and how Honey Bun Glaze felt. The team finally
understood and knew how it felt to be bullied.
Slide 19
Dear Honey Bun Glaze,
Slide 20
The basketball players realized how it felt to be bullied, and
they wrote a letter of apology to Honey Bun Glaze. Also, the
basketball team started an event in school called the Honey Bun
Glaze Ball.
Slide 21
Slide 22
The Castle Hawk basketball team now plays games with disabled
students, and the team started a bully-free team. Just because you
are different doesnt mean that youre not somebody, because in my
eyes everybody is somebody. THE END !
