Social awareness allows us to understand how another person
is feeling. It is the ability to
empathize with others, express gratitude, and have a sense of belonging to one’s
family, classroom, school, and community.
Often students come to talk to me about issues other than math
problems. I encourage my students to see
other students’ perspectives about various issues that arise. I model the behaviors I want my students to
have. Therefore, I display empathy,
compassion, and gratitude in my classroom every day.
