Radio was a movie about a man that walked the streets, and lived with his mom, but after a while he seen a group of football players and watched them almost every day. When the coach starts to see him there , he starts to take good care of him, it was for him being bullied a lot.

1) Five ways he was bullied are ignoring him, hurting him, telling him to do something bad, treating him differently, and abusing him.
2) A bystander could of prevented him getting bullied, by changing the subject or leading the bully to something else.
3) If I was bullied like that I would hate life. I would think that I don’t belong here. I would feel really sad and always want home. I haven’t had something that bad ever happen to me.

Radio was bullied a lot in this movie. The football team bullied him by tying him up in a closet and he was also bullied by the guy who came to the office and talked to Mr. Jones, The guy called him a retard. The other players on the team could have stopped some of the players by telling them to leave radio alone and telling Mr. Jones. Mr. Jones could have told the guy to watch his mouth and not call names. It would be hard to be radio, I would have not been very happy when the football team locked me up in a closet. But I would have been very happy to have someone like Mr. Jones looking out for me.

Radio was bullied a lot in this movie. Here are some places that Radio was bullied in. he was bullied in the shed, at the school, and on the football field. Bystanders could of left him alone and go get the coach earlier than what he came at. I would feel really bad when I was getting bullied and be very upset.

Three ways he got bullied was one they tied him up, they told him to go into the girl’s locker room and another is calling him names.

They could have stopped them by telling the bullies to stop or telling a adult

A instancent where radio got bullyed is where the football players duck taped him and throw him in the shed, when a football player told him to go in the girls locker room, When they gave him bad looks. some of the football players could have said no that is not funny. some one could have said don't go in there. A teacher could have said that is not right to do thet. If i was radioi would not feel good. my feelins would be hurt. No this have never happend to me. But i am glad.

Radio was bullied a lot in the move. He was bullied getting the football for the team. He was bullied when he got locked up in the shed. He was bullied when he went in the girl’s locker room and he was bullied wherever he went before Coach Jones came to help him. A bystander could have helped him when he was getting bullied all the times. If I was bullied like radio was I would want to run away to a different town. Bulling this bad has never happened to me before but lots of other ways of bulling is happening at Gobles Public Schools.

Radio got put into a room and was tapped up. Someone could have told the football players to stop and leave him alone. Radio got teased by the football players. Like the football players told him to go into the girl’s locker room when the girls were in there. Someone could have told Radio not to go in there because the girls were in there. Radio couldn’t go on the bus to the game because the principle didn’t think it was a good idea so that would be bullying him about his skin color. Someone could have drove Radio to and from the game. He also got yelled at and I consider that as bullying. Someone could have grabbed Radio and just walked away. Radio got teased because of the way he talked. People could have told the other people to stop teasing him because that’s not nice.
If I was Radio I would not like my life. I would wish that I could start a new life were nobody teases me and makes fun of me. Also if I was Radio I wouldn’t have listened to the football players told me to do because that was a bad thing. When the principle told Coach Jones that Radio couldn’t ride on the bus to the game I would be very upset because I would think that they don’t like me for the way I talk or the way I speak. I would have asked and asked for a new life. I am very glad that this has never happened to me.

In this movie radio that we watched on Friday a kid named James got bullied in many ways. James was bullied physically more then mentally. For one the football team boys looked radio in the tool shed and tied him up because he took there football. A couple of the football players also tricked radio into going into the girl’s locker room. James was getting bullied vary badly but it did not help him at all when his mother passed away. Here are three more examples about how James got bullied. James was left alone when he was promised to go on the buss with the other boys because the principal said that he could not go. James even got bullied by the football player’s teachers when they said that he was a big distraction during the games. And finally James was being picked on for who he was.

When radio was getting bullied coach Jones stood up for him but there wasn’t always a bystander maybe some of the other boys on the team that actually liked radio could of stood up for him.

If I were in James’s shoes I would probably feel the same way James did when he got bullied when his mother died and sad that the football season ended.

Ways Radio was bullied 1) when the high school boys told him to go in the girls lockeroom.2) when high school boys tied radio up.3) when the school board didn’t like having a mental man walking the halls.4) police man arresting radio for giving presents to his neighborhood.5)man at barber shop saying hurtful things about Radio.
If a bystander was watching, that person could have made a big difference. Such as telling Radio not to go in the girls lockeroom instead of going with the plan, or going to get coach Jones when the boys tied Radio up.
If I where Radio I would feel happy and sad. Happy because everyone liked me and everyone would try and help. Sad because I would feel like I didn’t belong in this world because I knew I was different and my life just seemed to get worst

1. The football players lock him in the shed in the football field.
2. One of them also tricks him into going into the girl’s locker room.
3. The principal doesn’t let him use the school bus to the football game.
4. At the beginning the guy who asks him to throw the football back, calls him a name when he doesn’t.
5. They made fun of him for being retarded.

A bystander in the football team could have stuck up for him while they were tying him up and could have prevented a lot of stuff that happened in the movie.

I would feel really bad and want to stay home all the time, although nothing like that has ever happened to me.

Five ways that Radio was bullied was he was taped together and locked in the equipment shed. People called him names and said that he was a retard. They lied and said that someone needed him in the girls’ locker room. When Radio was helping the team they pushed and shoved him. The worst thing is that other adults laughed at him and said that he was a distraction to the team.

Something that a bystander could have had done to prevent the bullying is that when people taped him up they could have said something or they could have untapped him. Another way is one of the boys could have stood up and told Radio that no one really wanted him in the locker room. People could have told them to stop pushing and shoving and could have helped him up.

If I was in Radio’s shoes I would probably cry and feel 3 again. I would not want to go back I would be petrified. If people did that to me I would never want to go anywhere because you don’t know if they would be there or not. But then I would think if I don’t go back then that means that they win and I lose. After that I would think well I would rather lose than deal with that everyday.

Radio was strong he didn’t stay home watching that movie I was about too cry. I never thought that any one could be bullied so badly. When we were watching the movie I was thinking “did this really happen?” I was also thinking “is this that type of bullying that causes people to go suicide?”

Radio was bullied when the football got over the fence the football player called him names. He was also bullied when they shoved him in the shed. He was bullied when they told him to go in the women’s locker room. Also when the guys were trying to be his friend. Another would be football.


A bystander on the football team could of said something for radio. Whoever tied him up should of got stopped by another player. When they told him to go in the locker room somebody should of told him not to. When they acted like his friend they should of said guys lets be serious. The other players on the team could of said guys focus and lets play.

I would feel upset if this happened to me. I would be heart broken if my mom died. I think he has a sad life. I hope he is okay. He is brave.

There were a lot of ways radio was bullied but I will tell you only five. One of the ways he was bullied was when the one kid was calling him depth. Another way he was bullied was when about five kids tied him up then put him in a shed and were throwing footballs at the shed. Their was also a time when someone told him to go in the girls’ locker room and then he said “don’t worry all of the girls are out, when they really weren’t.” Then a man said “that Radio was mentally retarded. And the fifth one is when a cop took him to jail for Radio giving out presents.
Someone could have told him to not say that to him. People could have ran into the shed and untied him. Somebody could have told him not to and if he still kept going then they could have stopped him. Then the coach could have told him to leave and never to say that to Radio again. Someone could have explained what Radio was doing and then he wouldn’t have to go to jail.
If I was Radio I would be so sad. If anything ever happened to me that happened to him I would probably never leave my house. Has anything like thing ever happened to me? No it has not ever happened to me. But I sure am glad that it has never happened to me.

He was bullied by when the football was kicked over the fence and radio grabbed it and the player said can i have it and he called radio dome and stupid and called him names. They threw him in the football shed and taped his mouth, feet, arms and threw him in the corner. Then they were throwing footballs at the shed scaring him. Three football players tricked him to go into the girls locker room when they were showering. One of the football players were pushing him around when he was helping them at football practice, he was shuving him into the ground when no body was looking. The prrincable was saying he was dangerous and didnt let him on the bus.
The other football players could of stood up by telling the football players not to bully and stop. They could of told coach about it and coach could give them punish. People at school could stick up for him more and be his friend.
If i put my self in radio's shoes i would feel terible. I would feel confused and why are they doing this i did nothing to them. I would speak up thoe i would of told coach what was going on and have him punish his players. I have fellings for him because he had problems he never went to school and he would push a cart every where he went instead of driving a car. He was called names and phissically and mentally hurt by the bulling. I was not bullied like this and no i havent been bulied and dont want to be bullied.

1. Radio was bullied when they tied him up, he was bullied when they told him to go in the girls locker room, they also bullied him when they kick the foot ball on purpose when he was trying to put it in the bag, when they called him names and for the last one they hit him on the head with a football on purpose.

2. For the first one they could of told them to stop and that this is not nice. For the second one they could
ave said NO don’t do that, that is not cool at all. For the third one they could of said knock it off he is just trying to do his job. For the fourth one they could have said stop calling him dumb and stuff that’s not nice now knock it off, and for the fifth one they could of said hey stop hitting him on purpose that’s not cool that could hurt him.




3. well if I were in radio shoes I would probably feel really upset and mad because they hurt my feelings and because I can’t believe they called me that or you did that to me. well kind of like 2years ago in third grade Destiny kept telling me what I should wear and don’t wear and that oh those clothes are hideous and that they are totally out of style. She also called me names that I will never forget she didn’t say any curse words or anything but she bulled me for 3 years and I still have night mares. Another time Roy Barnhill called me the b word and that made me fell really bad too.

1. Radio was bullied by being locked in the locker rooms while the football players through footballs at the locker rooms. He was also bullied by being told to go in the girl’s locker room at school. He was called deaf. Not being allowed to go on the bus to the game. The people at the shop told the coach Radio was a distraction. A bystander could have done… 1. Unlocked Radio from the locker room.2. Told radio that the people where lying.3. A bystander could have told Radio he was not deaf to make him happier.4. Someone could have told the principal that they needed him at the game.5. They could have told the coach he was not a distraction. If I was Radio I would feel horrible if I was bullied that badly.

scared.Then they told him to go in the girls locker room so he could get some thing for a teacher.That was a lie from 1 of the football players.They would kick the balls out of his hands by 1 of the players.They would not take radio on a game with them and then left him in the rain.The school bord called him retarted.some things people could have done was say stop it or leave him alone or i'll stay her if radio is'nt comeing orhe just learns slower or he's not any differnt.

Five ways Radio was bullied was when the boys locked him in the gear shed.
They told him to go into the girl’s locker room.
When the principal said he was retarded. They push him around and say he’s a distraction. They act like Radio’s not a person just because he’s retarded.
Something that a bystander could of done to prevent the bulling is to stand up for radio. Tell the boys to stop picking on him its not nice. The principal should of known better and say no. Someone could of said what’s different between Radio and you. What’s the reason you’re doing this.
If I was Radio I would be sad and wouldn’t be able to tell. Ask myself why are they doing this to me I didn’t do nothing. I thought the principal was spouse to help me. I can’t do nothing about it does he just not liked me.

RADIO


Radio was a great movie some parts were sad some funny and some were really rude.

1. Half of the football team locked radio in the shed and they typed his hands, and feet together. A bystander could have watched them and snuck up and caught them doing that.

2. Hitting him and pushing him. A bystander could have said “STOP” loud enough that an adult can hear.

3. Pressuring him into going in the girl’s locker room. A bystander could have said “if the teacher wanted him why doesn’t she just come in here herself.”

4. When the police officer pushed Radio into the car and took him to jail for passing out gifs to people on Christmas morning. A bystander could have said “he was only passing out presents.”

5. When the couch was at the barber shop after the game one of the guys were making fun of radio. The couch or another bystander could have said “he’s part of the team.”

If I was Radio I would be very sad and lonely most of the time. It would hurt my feelings really bad because it isn’t nice to make fun of people.

One of the ways a bystander could help was that they could have told him to stop. When they locked him up and taped his moth and legs to gather. One of the ways a bystander could stop them was to tell them not to put him in there. A way he was bullied is when they all came threw with the football stuff and hit him with it. A way they could have stopped it was to not hit him. And the last way they bullied him was they told him to go in the girls’ locker room. A way they could of stopped it was to tell there friend to stop. If I were radio I would never want to come back or be seen ever again

1. Radio was tied up against his will. 2. He was teased. 3. He was tricked. 4. He was ignored by his piers. 5. He was spoke to rudely.
On all of the things some one could have told coach Jones.
I would feel very upset because no one wanted to help me.
