Extended activity regarding perspective-taking skills
Play Attune has a great perspective-taking skills activity using short films. Feel free to visit their website for materials and detailed instructions. They provide printable activity sheets based on the three short films listed below. The activity goes through questions to help your child analyze the possible different perspectives and feelings between the characters and help your child learn why it is important to have as much information as possible about a situation before making assumptions:
Discussion points with your child:
What is perspective?
Why do you think different people sometimes have different perspectives?
It is important to understand that what you see can be altered by the information you have.
Why is it a good idea not to make an assumption about a person or a situation?
Don’t prejudge other people’s different points of view.
It is better to be open to learning more about different perspectives.
