Lesson Plan
Walking in Their Shoes
Students will develop social awareness by recognizing emotions in others and practicing empathy through discussion and role-play, ultimately stepping into someone else’s shoes.
Building empathy and perspective-taking skills helps students connect with peers, fosters a supportive classroom environment, and reduces conflicts by promoting mutual understanding.
