This document provides information and activities to teach empathy and environmental conservation. It defines empathy as understanding and sharing another's feelings. Fostering empathy is important for building strong relationships. The objectives are to understand the significance of empathy for the environment and participate in conservation activities. Students will watch a video and create an "empathy map" noting what someone said, thought, felt, and would do to help others. They will also reflect on a poem about our shared humanity. Empathy strengthens bonds between people and promotes connection.

10. UNDERNEATH WE’RE ALL THESAME
-Amy Maddox
“He prayed-it wasn’t my religion. He
ate-it wasn’t what I ate. He spoke-it
wasn’t my language. He dressed-it
wasn’t what I wore. He took my
hand-it wasn’t the color of mine. But
when he laughed-it was how I
laughed, and when he cried-it was
how I cried.”

11. Explain the task:
Creatively express thoughts on empathy based on
the presented passage.
Allow time to write,
draw, or record thoughts.
Sharing Option: Offer
learners the chance to share reflections.

12. Empathy has an important role to play in your life. First, it
can strengthen your bonds with the people you interact
with. As you try to understand others, you also make
them feel heard and understood. They’re then more likely
to take the time to empathize with you as well. This
deepens your relationship and promotes that feeling of
connection that all of us desire.
