  2. 2 Explicitly teach SEL Skills and infuse into curriculum Promoting empathy and compassion - strategies

  3. How can we integrate SEL with academic learning? In literature, bring attention to the social and emotional skills of characters. In history, discuss the social and emotional skills that helped people achieve great things. In math, encourage student to communicate clearly about how they solved a problem, then listen carefully to how others solved it. In the arts, so many possibilities!

  4. Be aware of children’s capacity for sympathy and empathy "No one has yet fully realized the wealth of sympathy, kindness, and generosity hidden in the soul of a child. The effort of every true education should be to unlock that treasure."-Emma Goldman

  5. Show you care • Demonstrate caring to others • Acknowledge your mistakes with your children (e.g., say “I am sorry”). • Show forgiveness to others and your child. • Note that children will learn more from your actions than from your words. • Talk about the good feelings that come from helping others. • Talk about times that you help others.

  6. Methods to Encourage Development of Children’s Empathy (Schulman & Mekler, 1985) • Draw the child's attention to people's feelings. Ask the child to imagine how he or she would feel in the other person's place. • Let the child know what the impact of his or her actions is on the feelings of others, including yourself. • Explain why people feel the way they do. • Make clear (or encourage the child to discover) what actions he or she can take that would be more considerate to the feelings of others.
