Description
Do the children you work with seem to lack empathy? Is this affecting their ability to handle social interactions? How do you even begin to teach them this key skill?
Join us on School Behaviour Secrets as we discuss the complexities of teaching empathy to children who may lack the neural circuitry for deeper understanding. Explore workaround strategies, the importance of labeling emotions, and practical tips to foster a more empathetic school environment.
