KHEC Curriculum Framework 8.0

On Compassion. Since the “Seeds of Compassion” resources are under copyright, we are providing the link to the source of these teaching materials: (www.seedsofcompassion.org/why/curriculum.asp). The lessons were developed to prepare students for a Seeds of Compassion event in April 2008 as part of an introduction to the Dalai Lama who was featured at Children’s Day. The lessons are intended for grades K - 2, 3 - 5, 6 – 8, and 9 - 12.

Learning to Care through Kindness to Animals: A guide for teachers.

Since this resource also is under copyright, we are providing the link to the materials (www.sacsc.ca/PDF%20files/Resources/Humane%20Education.pdf). Of the many valuable sections, perhaps the most relevant is the one on “Curriculum Connections and Teaching Ideas” in which numerous teaching and learning activities are presented in various curriculum areas, e.g., science, social studies, language arts, math, health and personal life skills, fine arts. Many useful web sites also are referenced.
