The Teen Aggression & Bullying Workbook addresses one of the most pressing challenges faced by today’s teens: aggressive behaviors and bullying. This bullying workbook for teens provides a safe, constructive way to explore emotions, examine experiences, and reflect on both sides of bullying situations.
With reproducible worksheets, self-assessments, and journaling prompts, teens identify how aggression impacts their lives and practice alternative responses. Facilitators can use these resources to build empathy, reduce harmful behaviors, and guide participants toward healthier communication, resilience, and stronger relationships with peers.
Six focused sections address the many aspects of aggression and bullying:
Violence Motivation — explore reasons teens may act aggressively.
Environmental Aggression — examine exposure to violence at home, in neighborhoods, and online.
Are You Being Bullied? — assess if and how teens are being targeted.
Are You a Bully? — reflect on behaviors that harm others and learn alternatives.
Bystander Behavior — practice safer, more constructive responses in bullying situations.
Depression and Suicide — discuss emotional health and warning signs using guided questionnaires and journaling.
Evidence-informed methods: Combines self-assessment, journaling, role plays, and reflective exercises.
