Roots of Empathy

We would like to welcome baby Max and his mom Vivi into our school community as our Roots of Empathy family this year. The Roots of Empathy program is an evidence-based classroom program that has shown dramatic effects in reducing aggression and raising social and emotional competence, as well as empathy, in school-aged children.

The students of Room 6 were delighted by Max’s toothless grin and started to learn what Max can do and what he prefers. They discovered that Max could communicate with his body and the sounds he makes. He likes looking at faces, listening to Room 6 singing and being with his mom. We look forward to an exciting year of learning with baby Max as our special teacher!
