“I Hear You: Poetry as a Tool for Emotional Literacy and Empathy Education” – Christian Educators Journal Article by Mr. Hayden MacKinnon, LCS Grade 7 Homeroom Teacher
Dear LCS Community,
Check out the December 2021 edition of the Christian Educators Journal that features an article from one of our very own Grade 7 Homeroom teachers, Hayden MacKinnon. In his article, “I Hear You: Poetry as a Tool for Emotional Literacy and Empathy Education,” he explores how to think about emotional empathy building as one of the ways that we better understand ourselves, others, and the world around us. Mr. MacKinnon walks through examples from his own life on the impact of poetry and provides teachers with a framework for how to think about emotional literacy.
