Resources, Lessons, Ideas, "Kindness Goody" For Incorporating Empathy Into Your Lessons #ECI2020


How do we incorporate Empathy? Well, we use the Understanding by Design Method (UbD) We find a lesson we want to teach. Brainstorm. What are the current needs or issues in the school at this point in time. We try our best to incorporate multi-divisional lessons with cross curricular needs. With this unit, we have a little art history, studio habits of mind and an eMpathy component. The COTA Class will create Valentines for a local hospital to share. Read on for more details.


We have blogged on UbD (Understanding by Design before check out the links:

We watched a few video clips. Created some original Chris Uphues Art in our own style.




Used budget from COTA Class to purchase candy.
See above for a final piece of Chris Uphues with candy attached.
















In our opinion, you can incorporate eMpathy in most any lesson you just got to find the right angle.
