My Project

I will teach my students compassion by defining what compassion is then having a class discussion how we can show compassion. Students will come up with examples of acts of compassion. Students might suggest making all students feel valued. I will measure success by reading the examples they came up with. We will follow up by giving an example of how much each student valued. That is distribution of flags as a concrete symbol of our community ties. There is so much fighting in our world. I want to teach my students compassion and caring for each other and our community. So many people in the world are suffering, we want our students to be proud of themselves and the freedom we have in America!

During the month of June, we also learn about the Pride flag as we welcome all in our community.

We want all students to show compassion towards groups have faced challenges throughout history. We will talk to our students with the help of the school counselor to see how our students learn compassion.
