Activities to create empathy

Submitted by an LD OnLine user on

I am conducting a training for substitutes in our county, which is designed to assist the subs in gaining an awareness of what it is like to have a disability, how to reach and theach these children and provide some successful strategies for working effectively with our kids.

I would like to provide them with some hands-on experiences, and I am open to suggestions from this board. I had a bunch of them when I was in the classroom, but left them there when I came to work for the district ESE department.

Your ideas would be appreciated!

IMO, you just can’t beat Rick Lavoie’s video “How Difficult Can This Be?” the FAT City video (FAT stands for Frustration, Anxiety, and Tension). Check out the “LD Store” section of this website.
