About this Event
The Ethics for Children program is a fun, safe, interactive learning environment for kids to investigate important topics that affect their lives. Our classes foster empathy, a deeper understanding of self and others and empower students to make a difference in their world.
How do we do it? Each of our weekly class features a lesson drawn from our 5 core principles: Caring for Self, Family, Community, Society (our world community), and the Earth. Our lessons utilize participatory learning through art, theatre, games, music, discussion, reflection, and importantly - action.
Our lessons and projects are influenced by student passions and interests, ensuring our classes have significance to them. Our program does not impose a fixed set of values or beliefs. Rather our goal is to provide a forum where students can identify their own values, expand their knowledge and gain skills essential to developing and following their own moral compass and voice.
Students who attend our virtual program are also welcome to join their In-person counterparts Sundays in Brooklyn, putting ethics into action with community service projects and other joint activities throughout the year.
