Role Play Empathy

 My students love "putting on plays".  They love getting in front of people and showing people what we are learning.  

Empathy Role Playing Ideas:

1. Students smile at recess...what happens?

2. Students are yelling at lunch...what happens? 

3. Students are saying mean things at recess...what happens?

4. A student is crying in the classroom...what happens? 

5. A student is laughing in the classroom during work n play? 

6. Students are being mean in the classroom...what happens? 

All of the role-playing ideas came from the mini book we just completed.  This is another way for them to understand how their actions effect other people.

Sometimes we just ignore, sometimes we need to tell a teacher, sometimes we cry and there is an emergency (hopefully you don't h...
