This is a picture book suitable for elementary students that explains how a gun works, what happens when a bullet leaves a gun, and ways children can keep themselves safe from guns. The illustrations and text are very clear and straightforward and give kids real answers to their questions.
The Student Pledge Against Gun Violence is a national program that honors the role that young people, through their own decisions, can play in reducing gun violence. This campaign against youth gun violence culminates each year on a Day of National Concern about Young People and Gun Violence. The program provides a means for beginning the conversation with young people about gun violence. It refers teachers, counselors, and community leaders to valuable resources, includes curriculum suggestions that can be integrated with existing academic programs, and contains information about how your school can participate.
