PBIS: EMPATHY How to be a good Friend
Show Empathy by treating others the way you want to be treated and ask yourself, is this hurtful or helpful? Remember the 30 seconds or less rule: YOUR WORDS MATTER.
THINK: T: Is this True? H: is this helpful?, I: is this inspiring?, N: is this information necessary? K: is this kind?
Let’s spread empathy and kindness at Edison.
