As an educator, there are probably few things that brighten your day like kind words or a hug from a student. However, like all human beings, kids can also be uncaring or downright mean. In elementary school, children are still developing empathy -- the capacity to feel what others are feeling. What can you do to help your students consider the needs of others?

Picture a workshop where your students are learning to treat each other with compassion and respect. They’re practicing reflective listening skills, growing to appreciate diversity, and learning strategies to resolve conflicts. But this isn’t a lecture! Your students are getting hands-on practice with empathy and compassion through role-playing. In other words, they’re trying real-life skills without real-life consequences.

That's what Real Life Drama is all about. Our series of eight 50-minute workshops will engage and transform your students!

• Being a Friend
• Popularity and Peer Pressure
• Appreciating Differences
• All About Empathy
• Building Integrity
• Conflict Resolution
• Stopping Bullies
• When You're a Bully

We require that a teacher or staff member from your organization attends each workshop to assist in supervising the students. We strongly recommend at least two staff members if the setting is outside of a regular classroom environment (like a treatment facility or community center). Real Life Drama is most effective when the same students experience all eight sessions. $250 is the cost for a single workshop. If you schedule all eight workshops at the same school during the same academic year, you’ll receive a discount, resulting in the price shown above.
