The Coolest High School Movie Cliques. Cool Kids and Losers: The Psychology of High School students in Peer Groups and Cliques: True Clique. What are the different high school cliques. Preps- typically good at sports good at being social and rich.
These kids used to run schools, and get picked as home coming queen. (my year two band geeks got picked as homecoming king and queen) jocks- good at sports, sometimes they date prep girls goths- wear black, act sad, desperately try to make statements. They may wear clothes of the opposite gender, make out more openly in the hallway than other people, or protest general injustices in a angry and ineffective way emos were after my time, but they fall into a similar category only they don't try to shock quite as much band geek- in band and maybe orchestra, choir, or other musical clubs tend to be clean cut, and fairly smart may also be jocks or brains nerds, or brains- this was me- you get asked to be other people's lab partners because you're smart, sometimes get picked on for liking school too much, especially as a freshman. depending on the size of your school there may be large activities that develop their own cliques.

Let them know that in order to create a puppet show you all will need to identify a problem and a solution (or plot); a location (or scene); characters; and props. First, ask students to define what a bully is to them. Next, have students identify where bullying happens the most at your school (the cafeteria, the playground, in the hallway, etc.). Discuss with students ways in which they can stop a bully from picking on others. As a class, decide on a cast of characters. Next, create a basic dialogue or script for the puppet show. Once you've chosen characters and written a script, divide students into two groups. School Climate Questionnaire.pdf.
