This webinar will explore how educators can help children to learn the value of being empathetic. This webinar will also examine the benefits of teaching empathy. Research shows that when young people have empathy there is more classroom engagement, higher academic achievement and lower incidence of bullying. Participants will learn strategies for teaching empathy in the classroom.
