This comprehensive resource also includes 20 thought-provoking activities and discussion questions, providing educators with a wealth of tools for extending the lessons of empathy and perspective-taking. From comparative analysis and writing prompts to role-playing exercises and real-world connections, these activities are designed to help students internalize the stories' messages and apply them to their own lives.

Key features of "1 Story, 2 Perspectives":

  • 8 engaging short stories, each told from two contrasting viewpoints
  • Suitable for students in grades 5-8
  • Encourages empathy, critical thinking, and appreciation for diverse perspectives
  • Includes 20 activities and discussion questions for deeper exploration
  • Adaptable for various classroom settings and learning styles
