Information about diversity and bullying for teachers

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Some subgroups of students within the overall school population are more likely than others to be bullied.

Bullying sometimes involves negative comments about a student's personal attributes and how they are different from other students. These negative judgements can relate to:

appearance and weight

socio economic status

ability or disability

gender, sex and sexuality

culture, race and religion.

Prejudice-based bullying, also sometimes called bias-based bullying, is bullying related to prejudices that students absorb from the wider social community about the value of diversity in a community. (This is distinct from bullying related to students' ability to 'fit in' in how they behave, which is explored under Power, social norms and bullying).

The group of students who are most likely to report bullying are those who are overweight.

Students who identify as or are considered by other students to be lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender or intersex (LGBTI) also report more bullying than their peers.

Students with disability are also more likely than their non-disabled peers to be bullied and to engage in bullying.

Students with a disability that involves poor social skills (related to both managing their own emotions and behaviour as well as interpreting others' emotions and behaviour) are particularly vulnerable. Because they have verbal communication and social skills issues, students with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) are considerably more likely than other students to be involved in bullying.

Students from a culture, race or religion that differs from the main culture, race or religion at the school are also more likely to be bullied.

Student bullying is strongly linked to school climate, including how openly difference and diversity are discussed and how much value is placed on respect for diversity and inclusion.

At schools where diversity is valued and celebrated, there is no place for prejudice-based bullying.

To counter prejudice-based bullying, school communities need to work with students to understand and challenge wider social prejudices.

The Bullying. No Way! Teaching resources catalogue has a number of resources for teachers to use to explore diversity and difference, and to promote tolerance and inclusion amongst students.

In this website you will find 5 activities for building empathy.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Empathy is one of the most critical social skills young learners can develop. Not only is empathy a primary ingredient of bully-free schools and harmonious inclusive classrooms, it's also a skill students will use for the rest of their lives as they grow into caring, compassionate adults and good citizens of the world.

Empathy is a complex skill, but just like anything else, it can be taught. Today's post brings you five simple activities you can use to help build empathy in your students. Adapted from two effective programs on social skills development (see the end of this post for details), these activities will help kids correctly identify emotions, sharpen their active listening skills, sidestep common "empathy busters," and more.

Activity 1: Identifying and Modeling Emotions

Print out and review it with your students. Then try this:

Call on students and ask them to point to the face that shows happiness, sadness, etc. Continue until all students who had their hands raised have had a chance, even if it involves repeating emotions.

Ask all students who want to demonstrate an emotion to put their hand up. In rapid succession, instruct students to display physical actions that illustrate each emotion. Jump in and assist with your own modeling as needed.

Now it's your turn-model one of the emotions that your students haven't modeled yet, and see if your students can identify what emotion you're feeling. Ask them what could have happened to you to make you feel that way.

Discuss potential scenarios that may elicit emotions. Say to your students, "Show me what you would look like if you experienced this," and then present them with the below examples (or come up with your own):

You reached out to hug someone who turned away.

You won a prize that you weren't expecting.

Your goldfish died.

You saw yourself on TV.

Your friend just pointed out that you have something stuck in your teeth and it's been there since breakfast!

You found ants all over a treat you had left for later.

A person in your class got a toy that you have really wanted for a long time.

Activity 2: Guessing Emotions

Ask individual students to choose an emotion from the list we linked to above. Instruct them not to tell their classmates which emotion they've chosen. Have students, one by one, model the body language that reflects that emotion.

While students are modeling emotions, ask their classmates to look for clues to help them guess the emotion that's being modeled. Remind students that it's not always easy to figure out people's feelings, and reiterate that not everyone experiences or shows emotions the same way.

Here's a sample script you can use:

"Now, I need two volunteers to show a couple more emotions. You can show us an emotion from this list or you can show us a completely different emotion. Don't tell us what the emotion is right away. We're going to guess. We may not get it right, but that's okay. That's why we practice thinking about other people's feelings whenever we can. After we've had a few tries, I'd like you to tell us the make-believe reason why you are feeling that emotion."

Activity 3: Active Listening and Showing Empathy

First, introduce your students to the importance of active listening and the difference between sympathy and empathy. Here's a script you might want to use:

"There are two kinds of support we can offer when we're helping someone: sympathy or empathy. In both cases, we can show that we are listening to someone by leaning our body slightly forward and toward the person, by looking at the person's face and giving them our full attention while they are talking, and by nodding occasionally to show that we are hearing them. We can also keep a kind expression on our face and repeat to the person what we heard them say when the time is right. For example, you can say, 'You're mad you have homework when you'd rather be hanging out.' You can also say things like, 'I'm so sorry.' But empathy takes sympathy a little further by showing how deeply we understand. Usually, this means that something very similar has happened to you and you really do feel what the person feels when you realize the situation they're in. You could say, 'That happened to me once, and it made me so mad.' Even if we haven't been in a similar situation, we can still feel and show empathy by looking at the situation the way another person sees it."

Then, use to practice active listening skills. Divide students into three groups and give each of them a different story from the handout. One student from each group will be the main character, and the rest of the group should act together as the "director," to help the student act out the emotion the person in the story might have.

After each group shows their depiction of the emotion, ask the rest of the class:

What do you think the main character is feeling?

What physical cues led you to that conclusion?

Why is it important to know someone else's perspective?

What could you do or say if you were a friend of the main character?

Activity 4: Feelings Collage

This is a fun activity to try in any classroom, especially if some of your students are especially shy and might have difficulty acting out emotions in front of the class.

Bring a big stack of magazines to class and give each of your students art supplies: posterboard or construction paper, scissors, glue sticks. Invite your students to cut pictures from the magazines of people expressing any kind of feeling, and instruct them to use these images to build a "feelings collage." Hand out markers and ask students to label each picture in their collage with a feeling word; then, have them take turns explaining their collages and feeling labels to the group. Encourage your students to elaborate on the details of what they noted regarding the person's facial expression, their body language, or the context of the photo or illustration.

When the activity is over, let your students take the collages home. Recommend that they keep their collages and post them in a prominent place at home for use in practicing identifying and labeling their own feelings.

Activity 5: Empathy Busters

What's the opposite of empathy? In this activity, your students will learn about common "empathy busters" so they can avoid them in the future.

First, introduce your students to these empathy busters using the mnemonic device S.U.D.S.:

Solving the problem

Examples: "I'll fix it." "I'll talk to her." "I'll get you a new one."

Many people make this mistake when trying to comfort a friend. It's common to think everything would be fine if we could just solve the problem! Problem solving is a useful skill, but the timing must be right. What is helpful initially when another person is upset is simply expressing empathy, validating the other person's feelings, and inviting him or her to talk about his or her feelings. Rushing to solve the other person's problems often makes the person feel as if his or her feelings are being dismissed or invalidated.

Unsolicited advice

Examples: "Well, if I were you. . . ." "I think you should. . . ." "Why don't you just. . .?"

Again, offering advice right off the bat is not usually helpful or welcomed by a friend who is hurting. Instead, wait for advice to be sought. In the meantime, express empathy and actively listen. Just be there.

Dismissing feelings

Examples: "It's not that big a deal." "You shouldn't feel that way." "Get over it." "That's no reason to be upset."

This response makes it seem as though the person is wrong for feeling a certain way. Feelings aren't right or wrong-they just are.

Sarcasm

Examples: "That's just such a tragedy!" "Oh, it's just the end of the world..." "Boo hoo, what a shame."

Sarcasm will make an upset friend feel put down and/or misunderstood.

Once you've introduced the empathy busters, ask each child to write a short story describing a situation or event during which he or she became upset. Then, have students tell their stories while a peer expresses either appropriate empathy or an empathy buster. Encourage the other students to compare the expression of empathy busters versus real empathy. Ask the students who tell their stories to discuss how it felt to receive empathy versus empathy busters.

"Part of our formal education should be training in empathy. Imagine how different the world would be if, in fact, it were 'reading, writing, arithmetic, empathy.'" - Neil deGrasse Tyson

Empathy is the key to encouraging prosocial behavior, limiting aggression, and diminishing social prejudice in our world. "To empathize is to civilize," says Jeremy Rifkin, social theorist and author of the book, The Empathic Civilization: The Race to Global Consciousness in a World in Crisis. And, here in his TED Talk - The Empathic Civilization - Rifkin reimagines our world as a place where we cultivate enough empathy to see earth and all its residents as one large social unit. He argues that this is the opposite of a Utopian notion, and yet, it does seem quite idealistic, particularly as it is in contrast to our current mainstream model of schooling where character education and social emotional learning take a back seat to testing.

Education expert Dr. Michele Borba, a proponent of empathy in education, has written a book on the topic called UnSelfie: Why Empathetic Kids Succeed in Our All-About-Me World. While she believes teaching children character has value for the sake of our future society, she also thinks that perhaps pitching it as a tool for success might be one way to get it back into our school systems. "We are such a trophy-, SAT-obsessed society, but if parents would recognize the value [for success] beyond the humanness, civility and ethics, they might get it." She adds, "It needs to be woven in curriculum, not tacked on."

The research shows that higher levels of empathy make people more productive in cooperative learning and work environments, and empathy education has even been proven to boost traditional academic success as well. Future leaders in business, politics, art, and beyond will need emotional intelligence to participate meaningfully and relate to others in an increasingly complex world.

Studies, like this one of secondary school students, shows a simple and straightforward connection between empathy indicators in children and grade point average. One particularly interesting study noted the effects of empathy on comprehension in reading, literature and social studies. "The empathic child is better able to place him- or herself in the role of central characters portrayed in the fictional and historical readings. In addition to being better able to understand the roles and perspectives of these fictional and historical characters, the empathic child is better able to share and experience, to some degree, their feelings. These shared feelings may serve to underline and reinforce what they have read and been taught, resulting in better recall. (Budin, 2001; Cress & Holm, 2000)."

Educating children in, and with, empathy also has a direct effect on their behavior and motivation. Studying student behavior in schools that focus on fostering empathetic school communities have found that: "Students in high-community schools are more likely to become thoughtful and reflective, to be self-directing, but also to accept the authority of others, to be concerned for and respectful of others, to avoid courses of action that are harmful to themselves or others, and to maintain higher standards of ethical conduct."

It's not surprising then that empathetic students do better after their schooling as well. The authors of Emotional Intelligence 2.0, Travis Bradberry and Jean Greaves, found people with high emotional intelligence and empathy (which they call EQ) made an average of $29,000 more each year and they also attributed EQ to having a 58% influence over job performance.

Yale has a Center for Emotional Intelligence and provides an overview of the field in their publication, The Science of Emotional Intelligence. Yale scientists found that empathy is half the emotional intelligence equation - "a set of four related abilities: perceiving, using, understanding, and managing emotions. Emotional intelligence predicts success in important domains, among them personal and work relationships."

So, the WHY of empathy in education is pretty clear here in the 21st century. What about the HOW?

How to Cultivate Empathy for the Sake of Learning

Science increasingly suggests that empathy is a skill that can be learned and mastered, and we are gaining a better understanding of how to teach it in the classroom. A meta analysis of over 18 empathy training programs found that empathy training is effective.

There are many types of for- and non-profit empathy training initiatives available for schools, but educators can foster, cultivate, and teach empathy in their communities and classrooms by keeping these three principles top of mind.

Focus on a Child's Emotional World

Emotions are a key player in motivation and learning. Emotions and emotional intelligence play such a large role in achievement because emotional well-being primes students to learn and eliminates potent emotional distractions - anxiety, fear, jealousy, anger - that interfere with learning.

In Waldorf Education, special attention is given to the child's whole being - head, heart, and hands - with the heart being the emotional core. Learning self-regulation, listening skills, empathy, patience, and kindness toward others paves the way for intrinsic motivation and cooperative learning.

Use Story to Foster Empathy

Children who are encouraged to use their imaginations have the ability to place themselves into story, literature, and history lessons. Inquiry-based learning helps students adopt and emotionally connect to their lessons. What would it feel like to live during the Middle Ages without doctors or plumbing or schools? How would you feel about an arranged marriage at age 13? How did our character feel about it? The more students understand the influences their experiences have on their own mindsets, the more they can empathize about others' experiences and mindsets in past and in current day settings.

Actively Model Empathy

Positive teacher and student relationships are a key ingredient to student success. Waldorf Educators are particularly poised to take advantage of this dynamic, since they stay with students through multiple grades. Therefore, it becomes even more essential to model empathy and understanding for all students within the classroom community.

Genuinely caring for students, understanding their home life and backgrounds, believing in their potential, engaging in non-authoritarian discipline styles, and customizing one-on-one teaching when possible are all examples of empathetic leadership skills in the classroom community.

By teaching students empathy in an authentic way, we will not only see direct benefits in the classroom community, school community and student achievement, but we will ultimately help foster a better world - one that social theorists and philosophers believe is essential to thriving as a global community.

Este mapamundi magnético infantil sin duda tiene la capacidad de divertir al tiempo que decora a la perfección el cuarto de cualquier niño. Se trata de un cuidado juguete de madera, enfocado para niños de 7 a 12 años. Cada fragmento magnético (hay un total de 92 piezas) representa un país o una región del mundo con su nombre, su capital y una ilustración que lo caracteriza.

Con vivos colores para hacer más alegra la estancia en la que se ubique, el gran tablero magnético representa el mundo con sus continentes, mares y océanos. Cada región tiene un color diferente y en ella se colocan los países para que los más pequeños puedan aprender geografía de una forma lúdica. Se cuelga en la pared y constituye sin lugar a dudas una manera muy lúdica y pedagógica de descubrir el planeta. Puedes encontrarlo en tiendas de juguetes educativos y te lo ponemos fácil en nuestra tienda.

Mapa de España magnético infantil

Desde Janod, la marca que ha elaborado estos mapas magnéticos, han preparado otra versión española del mismo concepto. Se trata del mapa de España magnético. Siquiendo el mismo esquema, el mapa sirve para que los más pequeños aprendan a ubicar las provincias y comunidades autónomas en su posición. Presenta ilustraciones y los mismos colores vivos que caracterizan a este juguete geográfico. Tiene 52 piezas.

Conocimos los manteles de colorear en un viaje a Bruselas. En Francia y alrededores esta manera tan didáctica de aprender geografía es sin duda tendencia. Diseñados por la firma gala OMY, se trata de un set de 24 mapas de colorear en formato mantel.

El set incluye 4 mapas de cada una de las seis ciudades incluidas: París, Londres, Nueva York, Río de Janeiro, Tokio y Barcelona, como representación española en el catálogo de manteles.

Sin duda, OMY ofrece a través de estos manteles una gran fuente de entretenimiento, que mantiene a los niños ocupados durante horas. Una gran idea para fiestas de cumpleaños y vacaciones, pero también para esos largos días de lluvia. Una manera muy apropiada de aumentar la curiosidad viajera en los más pequeños, al tiempo que se potencia sus dotes artísticas. OMY ha creado otros formatos de gran y mediano tamaño con este mismo concepto: el mapa de colorear.

Mapamundi mural infantil

Sin duda un gran producto geográfico para que los más pequeños de la casa disfruten descubriendo el mundo. Con este mural adhesivo imantado del mundo conocerán el planeta de una forma totalmente diferente.

El mapa funciona de la siguiente manera: se pegan los continentes sobre una pared lisa (no sufras por ella) y después los pequeños (lo recomendable es que sean mayores de 7 años) pueden ir colocando encima los distintos animales para hacer de el mundo un verdadero Arca de Noé.

Mapas de rascar

Como ya te contamos hace tiempo en el blog, los mapas de rascar llevan tiempo de moda. Pensados para viajeros empedernidos, los 'mapas de rascar' o 'Scratch Maps' triunfan. Y son sin duda también una gran manera para educar en geografía a los peques de la casa.

Los hay en muy diferentes formatos, pero nuestros favoritos, en español son los que ha diseñado Carlos, amigo del blog y que con su marca 'Enjoy Maps' ha diseñado tres modelos de mapa rascables en español, un mapamundi, otro de Europa y otro de España, con un diseño muy acabado.

Puzzles de ciudades

Otro clásico, este para más mayores: los puzzles de ciudades. ¿Qué mejor manera que aprender las calles de Madrid que a través de un puzzle del callejero? El de la capital de España está en formato de 500 piezas.

El de Barcelona, en formato de 100 piezas. Pero hay más capitales europeas en formato puzzle. Educar en geografía es también conocer de cerca las calles por las que transita la vida. Y con estos puzzles urbanos sin duda es posible hacerlo.

Globo terráqueo puzzle

De puzzles va la cosa. Y nada convencionales. En este caso, te acercamos el globo terráqueo en formato puzzle. Pensado para mayores de 12 años, consta de 540 piezas curvadas de plástico, diseñadas para encajar a la perfección sin necesidad de utilizar pegamento para que queden unidas.

Cada pieza de plástico del puzzle muestra una detallada sección del planeta y proporciona una forma práctica para explorar el mundo desde casa. Nos parece sin lugar a dudas una gran manera de aprender geografía de una forma divertida.

Una serie de números y flechas que aparecen sobreimpresas en la parte trasera de cada pieza permiten conocer la dirección del proceso de construcción. Además el mapa está acompañado de una guía para ver el globo terráqueo completo mientras se monta. Puedes encontrarlo aquí.

Have you ever been curious about your ancestors? Perhaps they were the first generation in your family to live in the United States and had to learn a whole new language and customs.

There are actually many good reasons to learn more about the generations who lived before you. Studies have shown that learning about your family history can lead to a positive effect on younger generations.
