In Spring 2025, we’ll be focusing on the ever important skill of Empathy! For 9 weeks, we will work on understanding our own emotions and the emotions of others to create a more caring and just world. Empathy is our human superpower…our ability to connect and understand each other’s point of view leads to happiness and even better health outcomes!
Our lessons follow a steady progression and are organized into three units:
The Our Feelings unit is focused on emotional empathy - understanding our own emotions.
The Our Friends unit is focused on cognitive empathy - understanding how other people feel.
The Our Community unit is focused on compassionate empathy - taking action to care for ourselves and others.
