My Project

Self expression inspires compassion. Students will see the world through the eyes of another person through this compassionate project. Students will create a gift to friends who need to be shown compassion and need a gift to cheer them up. When students participate in creating and giving something for someone else, they will see the gratitude from other, which will show students how that other person benefits from their kindness and compassion. This also encourages students to get to know other students who may be very different from them, which introduces new perspectives.

Students will work to help those they have learned about by using this compassion to reach out to other students and by doing more things to help others while getting the benefit of self expression.

This project is a beginning step that will lead students to participate in larger acts of compassion.

I will measure success in my students understanding of compassion by seeing their interactions with others who need compassion and by their future participation. Students will learn compassion and empathy for others.
