Class Experience

Empathy such a funny word to a child. But only 20% of people practice this funny wonderful word! What gives? Kindness is key here. In this lesson, students will learn what Empathy is, and how it is different from Sympathy and Apathy. We will discuss the difference in each and how sympathy isn't bad it just doesn't connect us to another person like Empathy.  A short video will be shown to give students a visual of Empathy and Kindness in action. Students will learn that walking in others shoes isn't always easy, but showing kindness and compassion through Empathy isn't too difficult. It takes practice just like football, ballet, or math. We will discuss how to being mindful of others when they need Empathy through actions or actively listening and what that looks like.  We will be role playing with different scenarios where students will have the opportunity to share how they would show empathy in different situation.  

Students will understand that Empathy and Kindness are contagious, when they show kindness it is something that others will follow and give away as well. I feel Empathy is such a great quality to learn and practice at this age.

My teaching style is interactive which encourages students to discuss the topics and interact with each other sharing different ideas. I believe all students are unique and have something special to share. It my goal to create a safe space where students are comfortable discussing ideas and can feel free to ask questions.  

No prior Knowledge is needed for this lesson. My goal is for students to feel empowered to show Empathy to others with the knowledge they have gained with this lesson. I do not discriminate  race, creed, religion, nationality, gender, or abilities. I am thankful to be able to teach this topic which is so important to understand at this young age.  

I look so forward to seeing your child in class!
