T4W1- Explanation, Empathy, Tolerence, Qualities, Kindness

Is Mocking someone else's culture alright, no, people have their own belief and Religion and respecting and showing values of their culture is the best choice to make. How would you feel if someone barged into your house or temple of worship and made a nasty comment about your culture, Showing Empathy to them is like putting yourself into their shoes. Empathy is a strong word and means to put someone else first who is living a life where they are not able to show themselves or to share their culture.





Do you know someone who is experiencing Cultural effects- For example, A new person comes to a school which has only light coloured skin students. During Morning Tea a group of students from year 6 to 7 approach the new person and start humiliating them by making comments about who they are. Meanwhile, another student comes into the problem and attempts to use empathy by using a proper explanation to convince the bullies that mocking a culture is never ok. Think about it, the life effect on that 1 person. That single pupil would ́t ever want to go to school because of the less welcoming that they were given.





So why is Empathy important? Empathy can help cultural communities live in safer places. Mainly places where foul language is not used, less Mocking more empathy. Because being in a country where they only allow 1 colour can change everything but standing up for what is right can make a huge difference to many peoples lives.

This Week In Writing we are continuing to write explanations, This time our topic is based on values- The 4 values that we are focusing on is, Kindness, Empathy, Tolerance, Qualities. Our first task was to plan for 5 minutes then write for 40 minutes. While I was writing my explanation I kept on looking at my notes to ensure that I included, formal language, Punctuation- To make sure I marked the punctuation in the write places, Rhetorical question, Technical vocab + powerful words and last by not least TIIC which is the main part of this explanation. This Explanation that I wrote was based on Empathy and Cultural belief and why we should respect others opinion and thoughts- Belief.  After 40 minutes of writing I did 5 minutes of drafting, I fixed up a few mistakes but during the proof reading stage I realized that what I´ve wrote included all main points that I needed. Next time I need to work on not including to much information about the topic.
