📌 Important Notes:

This resource includes Kindness and Caring Social Skills Set 2 only, not the complete three-set bundle.

Students can participate through discussion, reading, coloring, writing, pointing, or other communication methods that work for them.

Kindness instruction can include exploring different perspectives, respecting personal boundaries, and recognizing that people may experience the same situation differently. Students can learn to show care without being expected to agree with everyone or ignore their own needs.

The goal is to help students develop meaningful kindness and empathy skills through explicit instruction, reflection, and practice.
