In Nova Scotia, Tiny Teacher Tyrus helps children develop emotional literacy around the “Green Blanket” at St. Joseph’s-Alexander McKay Elementary, as part of the Roots of Empathy program.

Great thanks to the Grade 2 class, Tyrus’s mom Jalana, Tiny Teacher Tyrus, and ROE Instructor Patricia for sharing their class on November 10th, and demonstrating the value of empowering children to love themselves and realize that our differences may define us but our similarities connect us.
