Tiny Teachers | Episode 24 with Roots of Empathy

Brad HughesBlog, Good News Brad News Podcast

Roots of Empathy (ROE) is a unique and impactful social-emotional literacy program reaching over 1 million young people globally.

Created by Canadian educator and child advocate Mary Gordon, Roots of Empathy leverages the influence of a local family and their baby, who is four months old at the start of the program. Parent and baby visit an elementary classroom once every three weeks so students can watch and observe the baby’s growth, learn about their temperaments and celebrate milestone developments.
