Empathy Cart Exploration

Understanding empathy through play

This lesson introduces students to the concept of empathy through a hands-on activity using an 'Empathy Cart' filled with books, toys, and activities. Students will choose items from the cart during free time, promoting exploration and discussions on understanding others' feelings. This lesson is important as it helps young students develop social-emotional skills, particularly empathy, which is crucial for their interpersonal relationships and emotional intelligence.
